Get the scoop on current shows, theaters, and Broadway legends on this fun tour of NYC’s Theater District. Learn how to save on tickets, how one producer saved Times Square, and more. A must for theater fans!

Let's talk about Broadway theater while walking around Broadway theaters! Chris is a theater enthusiast (and recovered actor) who knows about a lot of shows currently running on Broadway. He will be your show matchmaker, informing you about the hype, stories, and stars so you can find the show that's right for you. He'll share stories from his years as a show-seer and a show-leaving-at-intermission-er. He'll even give you some history about the theater district and its famous theaters, featuring exciting dates like 1903...and 2015!

We'll stop outside the Gershwin, Circle in the Square, the Actor's Chapel, the Eugene O'Neil, the Ambassador, the Walter Kerr, The Longacre, the Lena Horne, the Richard Rodgers, the Lunt-Fontanne, the Marquis, the Golden, the Gerald Schoenfeld, the Bernard B. Jacobs, the Booth, the Shubert, Shubert Alley, Sardi's, and the Theater Circle Gift Shop.

Chris will find something positive to say about every show...even Moulin Rouge!
