There’s another aspect of the parades each year that, although not quite as famous, has had me glued to the TV screen every year since I can remember: the Broadway performances.
The fact that a show like Wicked can have such an emotional impact across generations proves that the longevity of Broadway shows as a whole should not and cannot be underestimated.
I wanted theater to be a way for me to escape into another world for a few hours a day, taking on a character and focusing on something that I know I can do and I know I can enjoy, whether that’s a music rehearsal, blocking session, or choreography.
