Broadway.com/Groups, a resource for group Broadway theater tickets, recently introduced a free-of-charge interactive application that allows travel buyers to promote and sell the most popular Broadway shows directly on their own website. Tailored for group organizers and meeting planners, among others, the new Group Sales Widget is available in two versions—one for those who want to package shows with other tour components and one for those who prefer to have their clients book directly. Both allow users to view video footage and production photos, and browse show descriptions, age appropriateness and group minimums. The Group Sales Widget currently features 15 Broadway shows, including Billy Elliot, Chicago and Jersey Boys. Users copy and paste the HTML code onto their website. The widget can be downloaded directly at www.broadway.com/groups/widget.
