GABE SALAZAR
Welcome to Broadway Blockbusters!
Broadway has been the beating heart of American musical theater for over a century—a place where stories come to life through unforgettable melodies, bold storytelling, and raw emotion. These productions have reflected our greatest struggles and triumphs, giving voice to the human experience in ways that resonate across generations. More than just entertainment, Broadway has sparked social change, challenged norms, and reminded us of our shared humanity.
Tonight, we celebrate the power of Broadway with a collection of show-stopping songs that inspire, uplift, and move us. From the satirical humor of Turn It Off (The Book of Mormon) to the revolutionary passion of Do You Hear the People Sing? (Les Misérables), our program captures the spirit of resilience and transformation. Light (Next to Normal) offers hope in the face of struggle, while our Rent medley reminds us of the importance of love, community, and living life fully. And of course, we take to the skies with The Wizard and I (Wicked) and a breathtaking arrangement of Over the Rainbow and Defying Gravity songs that remind us to dream big, break barriers, and embrace our true selves.
Music has always been a guiding force—a source of comfort in difficult times, a call to action in moments of change, and a celebration of the beauty that connects us all. We are honored to use our voices not just to entertain but also to inspire, advocate, and build bridges through music.
To our audience, supporters, and friends, thank you for believing in our mission and standing with us as we share our voices and hearts. Your presence tonight is a testament to the power of music and community. We are grateful for you, and we hope this evening fills you with joy, inspiration, and the undeniable magic of Broadway.
Enjoy the show!

A HOUSE IS NOT A HOME “A House is Not a Home” was the title song from the 1964 film starring Shelley Winters and Robert Taylor. This was one of many hits for the famed songwriting duo of Burt Bacharach (music) and Hal David (Lyrics). Along with singer Dionne Warwick, the Bacharach-David team created a string of popular recordings including “What the World Needs Now,” “Walk on By,” “Alfie,” and “Do You Know the Way to San Jose.” Warwick also popularized “Promises, Promises” and “I’ll Never Fall in Love Again” from Bacharach and David’s 1968 hit Broadway musical Promises, Promises. “A House is Not a Home” was originally recorded by Warwick in 1964. Although it was not included in the original production of Promises, Promises, it was added to the score of the 2010 revival, starring Sean Hayes and Kristin Chenoweth. Chenoweth sang the song in the show, along with the addition of Bacharach and David’s classic “I Say a Little Prayer.”
COMPANY This is the opening number of Stephen Sondheim’s 1970 Broadway musical Company. Sondheim contributed both the music and the lyrics for the production. The show was nominated for fourteen Tony Awards, winning six awards including best musical, best score, and best lyrics. The plot of Company was one of the first musicals that dealt with such contemporary issues as dating, marriage, and divorce. The story revolves around the protagonist, Bobby, a single man whose best friends are married or engaged. The opening number introduces the various characters who have come together for Bobby’s surprise 35th birthday party. The show is a series of vignettes highlighting the relationships he shares with his friends and the women he is dating. A British reimagining of the show in 2018, introduced a female protagonist named “Bobbie.” This gender-reversed version opened on Broadway in 2021, winning a Tony Award for Best Musical Revival.
DO YOU HEAR THE PEOPLE SING? “Do You Hear the People Sing?” is one of the many stand-out numbers from the nowclassic musical Les Misérables, based on the novel by Victor Hugo. The score was written by Claude-Michel Schönberg (music) and Alain Boublil (Lyrics). The musical opened on Broadway in 1987 and became the sixth longest running musical in Broadway history, with over 6,000 performances. The show garnered eight Tony Awards including best musical, best book of a musical, and best original score. This song is performed by a group of revolutionaries calling for people to unite in defiance of the injustices they face. The song’s message is one of hope and solidarity, standing for the voices of the oppressed rising against tyranny. It is viewed by many as an anthem, with themes of social justice, equality, and the fight against oppression.
EVERYBODY SAYS DON’T Stephen Sondheim wrote the music and lyrics for the avant-garde and unconventional Anyone Can Whistle, one of the first musicals for which he contributed music and lyrics. The show was produced on the New York stage in 1964. The plot dealt with an economically depressed town whose mayor (played by Angela Lansbury in her first Broadway musical) created a fake miracle to attract tourists. The show was a flop, closing after only 12 previews and nine performances. However, the show has become a cult favorite among Broadway musical aficionados. “Everybody Says Don’t” is a satirical, biting number sung by J. Bowden Hapgood, a phony psychiatrist. The song is about conformity and how society expects us to behave. This song challenges those constraints and has a theme that challenges societal norms and expectations, encouraging us to live our truth.
IN THE HEIGHTS The musical In the Heights (music and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda), involves people’s lives in the Dominican American neighborhood of Washington Heights in Manhattan. The score blends hip-hop, salsa, soul, merengue, and traditional Broadway music. The play opened Off-Broadway in 2007 and transferred to Broadway in 2008. In the Heights won four Tony awards, including best musical and original score. The song, “In the Heights,” is the musical’s opening number and is led by a bodega owner, Usnavi de la Vega, the protagonist of the musical. The song introduces the neighborhood and its inhabitants, focusing on the local, tightly-knit community’s cultural identity, aspirations and hardships. The music is upbeat and energetic, blending the melody with spirited and energetic storytelling.
LIGHT The song “Light”, by Brian Yorkey (lyrics) and Tom Kitt (music), comes from the groundbreaking musical Next to Normal, which won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 2010. Light also earned three Tony awards, including best original score. The focus of the show is on a mother coping with bipolar disorder and the impact it has on her husband, son, and daughter. The show is revolutionary in its focus on mental illness and grief and their effects on family dynamics. “Light” occurs at the end of the musical. It serves as a beacon of hope for the family and the future. The lyrics provide a sense of positivity and confidence, offering a message of strength and hope in the face of difficult conditions. As the lyrics suggest, “Day after day, we’ll find the will to find our way. Knowing that the darkest skies will someday see the sun. When our long night is done, there will be light!”
MAKE THEM HEAR YOU “Make Them Hear You” is part of the Tony Award-winning score of Ragtime, with music by Stephen Flaherty and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens. The musical, based on the novel of the same name by E.L. Doctorow, opened on Broadway in 1998. The story takes place in the early 20th century and intertwines the lives of the white upper-class, Eastern European immigrants, and African Americans. “Make Them Hear You” is sung by Coalhouse Walker, Jr., an African American musician, whose life is shaken by racial injustice when the mother of his child is tragically murdered. The song calls for social action and highlights the importance of using one’s voice to bring about change. As the lyrics assert, “Your sword can be a sermon, or the power of the pen. Teach ev’ry child to raise his voice, and then my brothers, then….Make them hear you.”
NO ONE IS ALONE “No One is Alone” is from Into the Woods, with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. The show opened on Broadway in 1987 and won a Tony Award for best score. The plot intertwines the story of a childless baker and his wife, a witch who puts a spell on them, and characters from several popular children’s fairy tales including “Little
Red Riding Hood”, “Jack and the Beanstalk”, “Rapunzel”, and “Cinderella”. By the end of Act I, everyone seems to be living happily ever after. However, Act II focuses on what happens afterwards. Or as the story’s narrator states “once upon a time…later.” “No One is Alone” occurs toward the end of the second act, following a series of tragic events, leaving several major characters facing loss and adversity. The song acts as a reminder that even in the worst of times, no one is truly alone; others can provide support, comfort, and love. The song serves as a message of hope, solidarity, and reassurance in times of hardship.
OH, WHAT A BEAUTIFUL MORNIN’ “Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin’” is from the pioneering musical Oklahoma!, the granddaddy of all Broadway musicals. Oklahoma! was the first collaboration of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II. Of course, they went on to compose many smash hits including Carousel, The King and I, South Pacific, Flower Drum Song, and The Sound of Music. Based on the 1931 play, Green Grow the Lilacs by Lynn Riggs, the musical opened on Broadway in 1943 to rave reviews. It is considered a landmark musical because it is the first to be written that integrated song and dance into the book, or libretto, of a musical, advancing the story line. Oklahoma! won the Tony award for best musical and boasts the very first original cast recording of a Broadway musical. “Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin’” is sung by Curly, the leading male character, as the curtain goes up at the beginning of the first act. The song “Oklahoma!” became the official state song of Oklahoma in 1953!
RENT Rent opened on Broadway in 1996, following its premiere Off-Broadway. The show was created by Jonathan Larson who wrote the book, music, and lyrics. The musical was loosely based on Puccini’s La bohème. Tragically, Larson died the night before the show opened. Rent won not only the Tony Award for Best Musical, but also the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. The show ran for twelve years on Broadway and is the 12th longest running musical in Broadway history. Rent takes place in the East Village of New York City, focusing on a group of friends with varied personal and artistic pursuits. The musical addresses several serious issues including HIV/AIDS, homelessness, and the impact of gentrification in New York City. Rent stresses the importance of living life to its fullest, even in adversity. The medley you will be hearing tonight was arranged by David Maddux, and features several songs, including “Rent,” “Seasons of Love,” “Will I,” “La vie Bohème,” and “No Day But Today.”
SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW/DEFYING GRAVITY This composition, blending “Over the Rainbow” and “Defying Gravity,” was cleverly arranged by Saunder Choi, a Filipino composer, conductor, and singer. “Over the Rainbow,” was written by Harold Arlen (music) and E.Y. “Yip” Harburg (lyrics) for “The Wizard of Oz” in 1939, and “Defying Gravity” was written by Stephen Schwartz for the Broadway musical Wicked. Of course, both songs come from shows based on the novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, written in 1900 by L. Frank Baum. “Over the Rainbow” is sung by Dorothy Gale, a young girl dreaming of a more colorful and exciting world “somewhere over the rainbow” where the “dreams that you dare to dream do come true.” “Defying Gravity” is sung by Elphaba, the “Wicked Witch of the West”, who is also looking for a better world in her own way. However, as Dorothy takes quite a passive approach in her longing for a better existence, Elphaba’s approach is more active in creating her true identity to live on her terms. The song, one of empowerment, emphasizes Elphaba’s decision to break free from societal expectations, and to reject limitations imposed by others. “Over the Rainbow” won the Academy Award for best original song in 1940 and has been inducted into the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress. The score for Wicked won the Grammy Award for best musical show album in 2005.
SUNDAY “Sunday” is from the 1984 musical Sunday in the Park with George, with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. The musical was honored with the Pulitzer Prize for drama in 1985. The story was inspired by French impressionist Georges Seurat’s painting “A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.” The musical explores the relationship between the artist and the world around him. The stirring and beautiful song “Sunday” occurs at the end of the first act when George finishes work on his masterpiece. It is a choral number sung by the individual characters in the painting coming together in a unified vision.
THE WIZARD AND I “The Wizard and I” is just one of the songs from the musical Wicked that have become “Popular” since it opened on Broadway in 2003. Wicked is the 4th longest running show in Broadway history, trailing The Phantom of the Opera, the 1996 revival of Chicago, and The Lion King. The song, written by Stephen Schwartz, is sung by Elphaba, the “Wicked Witch of the West” during the musical’s first act. In this upbeat and optimistic song, Elphaba imagines what it would be like to be no longer considered an outcast because of her green skin. She sings with hope, ambition, and excitement at the thought of being accepted by others because of her abilities. She especially hopes for a special relationship with the “Wizard of Oz”, whom she imagines will take her under his wing, and give her the recognition she deserves.
TURN IT OFF “Turn it Off” is from The Book of Mormon, a satirical and irreverent musical comedy written by Trey Parker and Matt Stone (the creators of South Park) and Robert Lopez (co-creator of Avenue Q). Lopez and his wife Kristen Anderson-Lopez co-wrote the Academy Award-winning songs “Let it Go” (from Frozen) and “Remember Me” (from Coco). The Book of Mormon opened in 2011, and, in 2025, became the 11th longest running show of all time on Broadway. It won nine Tony awards, including those for best score and best musical. “Turn it Off” is a satirical song that uses humor to critique how religion or particular social situations can promote the idea of suppressing personal issues, rather than addressing them head on. In the song, the Elders sing of how they were taught to turn off emotions and desires considered inappropriate, similar to flipping a switch, “a cool little Mormon trick.” Even though the song is played for laughs, the song deals with personal and emotional struggles the Elders have had to face in their lives, such as coming to terms with being gay.
MARK B. KENT
Broadway and the world of theater have long been a magical sanctuary for our community—a place where we can leave the worries of the outside world behind. Through soaring voices, dazzling costumes, and breathtaking sets, we’ve experienced the full spectrum of human emotion, laughing and crying together. Tonight, we invite you to embrace that same magnificent escape. As you take in the magic of the moment, look around— onstage and in the audience—at the countless faces that have gathered in unity. This gathering is just the beginning. The LGBTQ+ community is vast, vibrant, and truly extraordinary.
In times when threats against our community rise, we at GMCSF remain steadfast in our mission to uplift and unite. We focus on our strengths, channeling our energy to celebrate the incredible, beautiful, and powerful individuals who make up our LGBTQ+ family. With unwavering belief in my heart, I know that no matter our challenges, we can rise above them. We may not always like it or even find it painful, but we are resilient. We will persevere. We have always been fabulous, and we always will be.
To the younger members of our community, I offer my deepest gratitude. Many before you have fought, endured, and even sacrificed their lives so that you would never know the shame or hatred that once defined so many of our lives. We were making progress, and though we now face new challenges, our collective strength remains. My hope for you—and all of us—is that we don’t get caught up in the individual letters that make up “LGBTQ+,” but instead, embrace the power of the singular, unified community those letters represent. We are stunning. We are magnificent. We are survivors.
I refuse to live in fear. It would be easy to let the hate and fear of others consume us, especially when we see attacks being made against our community. But I choose joy. I choose strength. I choose to celebrate who we are. Tonight is not about fear; it is a testament to our community’s incredible love, joy, and fabulousness. Tonight, we shine brighter than ever.
Warmly,
Mark B. Kent Executive Director
Support us as we give voice to the LGBTQ+ community.

DR. WILLIAM E. GANNON, JR. AND DR. K. DAVID WEIDNER
Bill and David’s journey with LGBTQ+ choruses is a testament to their dedication to music, advocacy, and community building. Bill’s introduction to the choral world began through a friend in the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington. David’s involvement dates back to 1998 when he moved to Washington, D.C., after previously auditioning for the Philadelphia Gay Men’s Chorus. Their paths converged at a strategic planning event for the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., where Bill was actively fundraising, and David had just joined as a first tenor—their bond formed within the chorus, proving that GALA Choruses foster connections far beyond the music.
Over the years, Bill and David found a strong support system within the choral community, strengthening their relationship and connecting them to various LGBTQ+ philanthropic causes. Their commitment to service continued as they relocated to Fort Lauderdale, drawn by the welcoming climate and vibrant LGBTQ+ presence. Even before moving, they supported the Gay Men’s Chorus of South Florida through donations and attending events. Naturally, David auditioned for the chorus, and Bill brought his fundraising expertise to the organization. Longtime friends and chorus members, including Fred Boykin, Dan Chadburn, and Tom Nichols, warmly welcomed them into the GMCSF family.
With experience in multiple GALA choruses, David recognizes each chorus’s universal mission—celebrating diversity, choral excellence, and activism. He stresses that now, more than ever, LGBTQ+ voices must be heard, and GMCSF plays a vital role in amplifying that message. Bill echoes this sentiment, emphasizing the importance of fundraising to ensure the chorus continues its work.
Music and LGBTQ+ advocacy have enriched their lives individually and as a couple. For David, singing is a means of education and healing, while Bill contributes by helping sustain the chorus through leadership and fundraising. Together, they advocate for increasing GMCSF’s reach through ticket sales, sponsorships, and community engagement. They encourage every member and supporter to actively promote the chorus, reinforcing that participation extends beyond singing—it is about growing a movement.
In today’s world, where misinformation and hostility toward LGBTQ+ individuals persist, Bill and David believe GMCSF’s mission is more critical than ever. They urge others to support the chorus by joining, donating, or simply sharing its message. They aim to ensure that the music and the fight for equality continue by raising their voices together.

WE’VE COME SO FAR IN OUR LIFETIME
Let’s Keep the Momentum Going! So many of us recall when television would never show two people of the same gender sharing a kiss… or holding hands. Now, we live in a time when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of marriage equality. We’ve accomplished so much, yet there is much more to do. Since the late 1970s, the LGBTQ+ Choral Movement has been a crucial tool for advocacy, unity, and education. GMCSF is proud to continue this legacy through our music. We are pleased to serve as cultural ambassadors for our community and provide a voice for those who do not have one. Help ensure this work continues by joining The Pegasus Society’s planned giving program. In addition, by including GMCSF in your estate planning, you can help sustain our organization and keep our voices active long into the future.
We invite you to join the members of The Pegasus Society today. If you want to amend your current estate, contact Fiel Garcia at (954) 763-2266 ext. 111 or fgarcia@gmcsf.org.
Establish a Legacy Fund with our community partner, The Our Fund Foundation; contact Mark Blaylock at 954-565-1090 or email legacy@theourfund.org.
