Broadway Theater

Highlights

Broadway refers to the well-known form of professional theater in America, and the most lucrative for the performers, technicians and others involved in putting on the shows. A Broadway show refers to a performance, usually a play or musical presented in one of the 39 theatres with 500 seats or more located in the Theatre District of Manhattan in New York City. Broadway musicals usually have much longer runs than Broadway plays. Going to a Broadway show is a top tourist attraction and getting a Broadway ticket can be difficult, but there are ticket booths where cutomers can buy a discount Broadway ticket. The Broadway theater district extends from 42nd street to 53rd street, and from Sixth A...  Show more »

  1. Baltimore theater companies in a building boom

    Vincent Lancisi stands in a pile of rubble sweating under his hard hat, while all around him — board by board, pipe by pipe and hammer blow by hammer blow — a theater is taking shape.

  2. You're in good 'Company' at Silhouette Stages

    Stephen Sondheim's Broadway musical "Company" has a title that refers to the companionship provided by the main character's friends, but it also essentially refers to the acting company that's called upon to do so much singing, dancing and acting.

  3. 'Fela!' celebrates influential Nigerian musician, activist

    He pioneered one the most influential, far-reaching musical genres of the past 50 years. He became a galvanizing force, too, in the cause of human rights. When he died, more than a million people turned out to witness his funeral cortege. Among those mourning his loss were the 27 women who had once been his wives.

  4. 'Urinetown: The Musical' is flush with satire

    Audience members who managed to sit through the Howard Community College Arts Collective Production at the Smith Theatre last weekend without squirming in their seats (and even those that just couldn't help it) were privy to a delightful romp through musical satire that was everything its title promises.

  5. Look up, it's 'Mary Poppins' at the Hippodrome

    In case you're wondering, the title character does fly above the stage of the Hippodrome Theatre in the 2006 Broadway musical "Mary Poppins." Just as there are rather obvious wires making her flight possible, the show itself tends to be obvious.

  8. Saying hello to "Dolly" at close quarters

    "Hello, Dolly!" is a big musical and the Audrey Herman Spotlighters Theatre is small. Its in-the-round stage is only 13-by-16-feet, so the current production spills over into every available corner and aisle. It's still a tight fit, but the advantage is that this show set, in New York and Yonkers in the 1890s, is taking place all around you.

  12. A welcome journey 'Into the Woods'

    Fairy tales seem like so much fun until you start paying attention. All that violence and vengeance, the spookiness, illusion, deceit.
