The Kimmel Center today announced the addition of Cadillac as the new sponsor of it’s 2005/06 Broadway series—Cadillac Broadway at the Academy. After two seasons as the Official Vehicle of the series, Cadillac has signed on to become the title sponsor for the 2005/2006 season of Broadway at the Academy.
“We are very pleased Cadillac has chosen to come on board this year as the official title sponsor of what promises to be a stellar season of the Kimmel Center’s Cadillac Broadway at the Academy series,” said Kimmel Centers President and CEO Janice Price. “Cadillac is a celebrated brand and we believe our patrons have come to expect the same kind of elegance, luxury, and superior offerings from our Broadway programming, which this year includes such great shows as Dr. Dolittle, Annie, Wicked and Disney’s The Lion King.”
“The sponsorship of the Broadway Series at the Kimmel Center is the perfect platform to optimize Cadillac’s brand image,” said Mike Valerio, Regional Divisional Marketing Manager for Cadillac in the Northeast. “The collaboration makes a lot of sense.
