Elon University represents on Broadway

By Sarah T. Moore

Playbill, a national magazine and website for theatergoers, released its 2022 Big 10 list earlier this month, ranking American colleges and universities by the number of current students and alumni who performed on Broadway from Aug. 22, 2021 to May 4, 2022. Elon tallied 17 alumni on Broadway this year, but it was not the university’s first time being featured on Big 10. It received an honorable mention in 2016 and was No. 10 on the list in both 2017 and 2018.
