It is award-winning filmmaker Rick McKay's journey over 4 continents and 5 years to find out whether there had been a golden age of theatre and why it had never been documented. He soon learned that great films can be restored, fine literature can be kept in print - but historic Broadway performances of the past are the most endangered. They leave only memories that, while more vivid, are more difficult to preserve. In their own words - and not a moment too soon - "Broadway" tells the stories of our theatrical legends, how they came to New York, and how they created this legendary century in American theatre. DIRECTOR: Rick McKay KEY CAST: Carol Channing, John Raitt , Chita Rivera, Robert Goulet, Angela Lansbury, Elaine Stritch and dozens and dozens of other major players.
