Product Description
Over the course of one Broadway musical season (2003-2004), ShowBusiness follows the four high-profile productions that would eventually become Tony nominees for Best Musical: the retelling of the story of the witches of Oz, Wicked, the Rosie O'Donnell/Boy George collaboration, Taboo, the much-anticipated Tony Kushner musical, Caroline, or Change, & and an irreverent puppet show named Avenue Q. From casting to staging, from previews to red-carpeted opening nights, from the announcement of Tony nominations to the suspense-filled Tony Awards, ShowBusiness provides a never-before-seen look at the inner workings of Broadway musicals. Allowed unprecedented backstage access, director Dori Berinstein casts a camera's eye on rehearsals, backstage highs and lows, and the mysterious and wondrous creative process. Featuring a star-studded array of Broadway icons as well as ambitious new faces, ShowBusiness proves that 2003-2004 was truly a season to remember. Features interviews with Alan Cumming, Boy George, Rosie O Donnell and members of the original cast of the Broadway productions.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderfully entertaining,
By
This review is from: Show Business - The Road To Broadway [DVD] (DVD)
This is highly recommended for loves of theatre, especially musicals. It deals with the 2003-2004 season, dealing with four musicals - Avenue Q, Taboo, Wicked and Caroline, or Change. Given this was one of the most prolific and strongest seasons of the past ten years, the makers picked a great group to look at. The DVD also has some excellent deleted scenes and an entertaining commentary. As always, I could have seen more clips of actual performances. A great documentary and DVD package.

Self-indulgent backstage stuff,

This review is from: Show Business - The Road To Broadway [DVD] (DVD)
This is for serious luvvies and wannabes only. The usual backstage documentary drivel, with critics sneering at one another and the latest Tony nominated shows and various casts having hysterics and touchy-feely moments. If you're looking for material from recent shows on Broadway this is about as good as you'll find till they release the complete works on DVD.
