“My fellow members of this new team are leaders of our industry,” Jaffe said in a statement, “experts in offering the best of Broadway across North America, and unquestionably the right stewards for our company. I am honored to lead the team and am grateful for the opportunity.”
BAA is part of the John Gore Organization family of companies, which includes Broadway.com, The Broadway Channel, BroadwayBox.com, Broadway Brands and Group Sales Box Office. BAA operates in 48 markets with over 400,000 subscribers, with presentations including Disney’s The Lion King, Wicked, The Book of Mormon and Hamilton.

Gore, the owner and CEO of the John Gore Organization, said, “As we congratulate this new leadership team, I want to take a moment to acknowledge Jeff Daniel’s invaluable leadership. In particular, his work in government relations was instrumental in helping secure the Shuttered Venue Operators Grants, which proved critical to our entire industry’s post-pandemic recovery. We all owe him a debt of gratitude, and I wish him the very best in his next endeavor.”
