The Making of A Broadway Show

In the room called The Making of A Broadway Show, you will go “backstage” into the world of Broadway. It gives you a whole new perspective on the real work that has brought plays and musicals to life. See the works of stage managers, set designers, technicians and theatrical photographers. Get a glimpse of Broadway costumes and listen to the marketers explain how they promote a musical.

Eric’s Tip: “Want to see even more Broadway ins and outs? Then the Broadway Theater Walking Tour is a nice option to do. During the tour, your guide, who is a Broadway actor, will take you to visit several theatres, tell you about the history and you will hear all the stories of life on Broadway.”
