Barry’s Best Of Broadway

July 21, 2023 @ 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM

Best Of Broadway

As a professional cultural Historian (and a self-described Broadway fanatic) I have actually seen well over 200 performances on Broadway!

I truly love going to the theater in New York City! Accordingly, I make several trips a year to Manhattan just to see what’s new on Broadway! In my home, I host a Tony Awards Show party the way many men host a Super Bowl party! (I am not kidding – I cook for two days and we even get dressed up!)

Barry’s Best Of Broadway

I am excited to offer an exciting new program featuring the stories and songs of some of my favorite Broadway musicals. We will compare complementary shows from Broadway’s classic era (1943 – 1970) and Broadway’s modern era (1970 – 2018)

This allows you to see how a classic like “The King And I”  relates to a modern show like  “Anastasia” or how “South Pacific” and “Hamilton” are related.

You will hear insider stories on each of the ten productions we will feature. In addition, I will talk about the cultural importance of the musical and let you see and hear performances of some of the greatest songs from Broadway. However, I have a very special feature that I am delighted to announce: we will have live renditions of some of the music!
