Fifth Third Bank Broadway Across America - Columbus is pleased to announce the return of Kroger Night on Broadway for the 06/07 Season. Kroger Night on Broadway offers theatre goers an opportunity to make a contribution to the Broadway For Kids Education Program when discount tickets to select Broadway Across America - Columbus performances are purchased.
