New Word with Dr. Sue “Broadway” – Showbiz excitment! How do you get to Broadway?

You can buy a ticket to a show! Broadway shows can be expensive, but well worth it! Or, look for discount options and previews.

You can invest in Broadway shows for special access to stars, opening nights, and more! Or donate (with a tax-deductible contribution).

If you’re an aspiring performer or creator (like Dr. Sue) learn your craft, practice, audition, submit your shows, and begin your journey to Broadway bows! It’s a challenge, but as Dorothy (in Rainbow To Oz) discovered on her road (yellow, like the Playbill program), it’s worth the trip!

New Word with Dr. Sue Broadway – History! I love the thrill of a Broadway show! And what of Broadway long ago?

The Lenape were the indigenous inhabitants of Manhattan, which they called “Manahatta” – meaning “hilly island.”

The word “Broadway”‘ originates from the Dutch “‘Heeren Weigh” meaning “Gentlemen’s Way,” inspired by a similar street in Amsterdam. After the British took over New York from the Dutch, it was renamed “‘Broadway”‘ for its unusual width.

The first theater company appeared downtown in 1750 on Nassau St, performing opera and Shakespearean plays. After the Revolutionary War, other theaters began to pop up, the growth gravitating eventually north to midtown where real estate prices were lower. The expansion and establishment of theaters along Broadway led to the word’s popular use as we know it today.

And now, for on-the-spot excitement, here’s a video of Dr. Sue at a Broadway theatre!

New Word with Dr. Sue "Baby" - "I Can't Give You Anything But Love"

New Word with Dr. Sue: "Baby" Dr. Sue Sings "I Can't Give You Anything But Love, Baby!"

New Word with Dr. Sue “Baby!” Dr. Sue Sings “I Can’t Give You Anything But Love, Baby!” The Rick Bogart Trio swings this jazzy song by Dorothy Fields and Jimmy McHugh! Where? at Tio Pepe NYC! Scroll Down for Singing Video!

New Word “Baby” is old – and new! Scholars trace it back to Middle English (from the Norman conquest in 1066 to the late 15th century). That’s about the time of Geoffrey Chaucer’s “The Canterbury Tales” (late 14th Century).

Some people think word “baby” imitates an infant’s first sounds (“buh, buh”). Some people connect it to the French “bebe” – which makes sense since the Norman invaders were French. And that links it to “bambino” in Italian, another Romance Language. What about the other meaning of “romance”? How did “baby” turn into slang for a romantic partner?

New Word with Dr. Sue. “Baby” as a term of endearment for a romantic partner goes back to the 19th century and blossomed in the 1920’s as “baby vamp” – a popular girl! Soon “baby” became a slangy term of affection as in “I Can’t Give You Anything, but Love, Baby.”

Dorothy Fields’ sassy, vernacular lyrics combined with Jimmy McHugh’s swing jazzy music made the song a hit in 1928. Vocalists include Ella Fitzgerald, Lady Gaga, and Dr. Sue!

Dr. Sue, entertaining, motivational speaker/author, sings in many languages, creates songs and parodies, emcees events and more!
