Broadway show
New York theater
A Broadway show is a theatrical production staged in one of the large professional theaters in Manhattan's Broadway district.
The term implies high production values, professional actors, and commercial scale: We got tickets to a Broadway show for her birthday.
Broadway shows—especially musicals—represent the pinnacle of American commercial theater.
