On Saturday, October 22nd at 7:30 PM - 8:00 PM, WABC 7 will present a half hour special celebrating the fall season on Broadway. Hosts Joanna Gleason (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels) and Steve Bartelstein (WABC) will take a behind the scenes look at the most anticipated shows this fall.

Film and stage star Jill Clayburgh (currently starring on Broadway in A Naked Girl on the Appian Way) will show off the fine-tuned cooking skills she developed in preparation for her role as a cookbook author, while the creators, director and stars of Jersey Boys will discuss bringing the music and the rags-to-riches story of the Four Seasons to Broadway.

Viewers will also receive an inside look at the workings of a Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS event. "WABC was there when BC/EFA's Annual Flea Market and Auction took over Shubert Alley, and the stars came out to raise money for Broadway's favorite cause," according to press notes. They will also see footage from Manhattan Theatre Club's Absurd Person Singular, the A Touch of a Poet marquee being raised at Roundabout's Studio 54 and much more.
