And the 2014 Broadway Producer of the Year is . . .

We had a record breaking number of votes for this year’s Broadway Producer of the Year, and with this year’s crop of nominees, I’m not surprised.  We had big corporations and single dudes and even a two time nominee.

But the winner, by a decent margin, mind you, is the good ol’ Mom and Pop producing team of Howard and Janet Kagan!

Congrats to the Kagans on a producing job well done.

What’s most exciting about the Kagans so far is that a quick check of the PlaybillVault will show you that they’ve only been producing shows for about 3 years.  And they’ve only just started lead producing shows in the last 1-2.

And that means there is lots more good stuff to come.

Thanks for the inspiration, Mr. and Mrs. Kagan.  My readers and I salute you.  I only wish the prize for winning this honor was automatic recoupment of your next show.

But a nice certificate messengered to your office in the next couple of days will have to do.  🙂

Thanks to everyone who voted, and here’s hoping you’re one of next year’s nominees.
