Here's something you may have missed, from NYtheatre Mike.
Last week, I had the pleasure of attending an advance screening of Dori Bernstein’s new documentary, ShowBusiness: The Road to Broadway, and enjoyed it a lot. Bernstein takes an inside look at the making of four different Broadway musicals from the 2003-2004 season - Avenue Q, Caroline or Change, Taboo, and Wicked - and follows their paths from rehearsals to opening night to the Tony Awards.Broadway isn't really my thing these days, but when film and tv representations of theatre are so few and far between, these seems like it could be worthwhile.
More from Mike and the ShowBusiness trailer if you click through.
The Avenue Q team are clearly nervous. They’re hoping for the best, but have no idea how their little-show-that-could will fare on the Great White Way ...By comparison, the Caroline, or Change team are so laid back they look like they’re on vacation. They know their show is the least commercial of the bunch, but that knowledge seems to liberate them all from caring.
Mike has much, much more right here.
And now, a trailer!
