Broadway actor
New York thespian
A Broadway actor is a performer who appears in theatrical productions staged in the Broadway theater district of Manhattan, New York City.
The term carries prestige—Broadway represents the pinnacle of American commercial theater, so Broadway actor implies professional achievement beyond simply stage actor or theater performer.
Someone may be called a Broadway actor after appearing in even one production there.
