As part of a star-studded kickoff to Kids Night on Broadway, young aspiring performers received dancing lessons from cast members of "Chicago" at Bowlmor Lanes in Times Square.

The event also featured a Super Bowl Sunday football toss and other games to kick off "Kids Night on Broadway."

Organized by the Broadway League, the annual event gives children between the ages of 6 and 18 the opportunity to see a Broadway show for free, as long as they are accompanied by a paying adult.

"It's great how many different activities there are here, it's not just bowling but you can go and I know at 'Addams Family' we have ping-pong and there's throw a football and there's karaoke and at 'Chicago' you get to learn a dance routine. It's so fun to see the kids, you know, they come through before the show and they can do all these amazing thing and experience it with the people from the show," said "Addams Family" Actor Adam Riegler.
