It’s Broadway Barks time y’all! And you know what the purpose of Broadway Barks is, right? To raise awareness of the plight of small, adorable creatures who need love: Broadway actors. No! Wait… Puppies. Puppies and kittens that need loving homes.
This means that one Saturday in summer time—July 14th, this year—we Broadway folk gather in Shubert Alley to ogle and coo and sigh as some really adorable people (actors) cuddle some small, adorable creatures (puppies) on stage. And it’s all for a good cause, to boot!
In honor of Broadway Barks, we assembled a huge bunch of photos of cute things being held by cute people. Sadly, though, none of these adorable people are up for adoption.

Gavin Creel
Gavin and Wally. If dogs eventually start to look like their owners and vice versa… no one in this photo minds.
Matt Cavenaugh
In this week’s episode of Puppies and Biceps…
Cheyenne Jackson
Every year, there’s a variation on this photo (cute puppy/tiny t-shirt/smooch). With Cheyenne, consistency is key. No one is complaining.
Jonathan Groff and Zachary Quinto
Groffalicious and Quinto coo over a baby. It’s not theirs. Or yours. Your imagination doesn’t care. Hope you didn’t need your uterus ever again.
John Gallagher Jr.
So this scruffy creature is too adorable for words. No, the puppy…
Liev Shreiber
Dashing Liev and his insanely pretty baby. Now imagine him reading bedtime stories with that voice and try to recover.
Aaron Tveit
In which Aaron Tveit thinks he needs to actually try to be cute as some cute puppies. Erroneous.
Hugh Jackman
Just when you thought Hugh couldn’t possibly be more attractive, he put on some dad jeans and picked up his baby daughter. Boom.
Matt Doyle
Matt Doyle, attempting to warp the fabric of the universe with the power of cuteness.
Patrick Wilson
Patrick and his ridiculously cute child, apparently not terrified by Julie Taymor’s creations.
Benjamin Walker
Because just cuddling a puppy would be too banal for President Sexypants Vampire Hunter, Ben Walker is cradling a koala. As you do.
