theater world

Broadway and beyond

The theater world is the community and culture surrounding stage performance—actors, directors, playwrights, producers, and the institutions they inhabit.

The phrase suggests an insider realm with its own customs, gossip, and social networks: She's well-connected in the theater world.

It encompasses Broadway, regional companies, and experimental venues alike.
