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!
