There's an App for That, Broadway Fans

The Broadway League has launched the IBDBapp for iPhone, iPad, and iPodTouch based on the League's popular Internet Broadway Database website www.ibdb.com.

IBDB provides a comprehensive database of shows produced on Broadway over the last three centuries, including all "title page" information about each production. IBDB also offers historical information about theatres and various statistics and fun factsrelated to Broadway.

The new IBDB app complements the Broadway League’s other online services:

The ILoveNYTheater app also provides up-to-date show and theatre information including theatre locations and show running times,a performance schedule for the current week, a guide to hotel and dining options in Manhattan's Theatre District, social media connections, news from The Broadway Fan Club, and more.
