Before Nick Jonas became a pop star, he was a child performer working on New York stages.
His early credits included A Christmas Carol, followed by Broadway roles in Annie Get Your Gun, Beauty and the Beast and Les Misérables.
On October 27, 2026, he helped honor former Disney chief Bob Iger at the Perelman Performing Arts Center.
That’s 251 Fulton Street, at the World Trade Center.
I like the connection: someone whose career began on New York stages returning to celebrate culture at a major performing-arts institution in Lower Manhattan.
