What Inspires Me? Museum of Broadway
There are museums for everything, right? Art museums, Sports museums, Train museums, Firefighter museums, Sex, Toy and Torture museums (different buildings in different cities). And yes, there is even the Museum of Everything. But… not quite everything!
Finally the museum that will have Broadway Theatre loves knocking their foreheads saying “Duh! It’s about time!” is live!
The Museum of Broadway opened officially November 15, 2022.
I was so lucky to get a sneak peek of the Museum a few days before its official opening.
One word: WOW!
The costumes, the scenery, the makeup, the props…There is No Business Like Show Business (Sing it Nathan!)
Museum of Broadway has got some of everything that makes Broadway, Broadway Baby!
I predict it will be SOL soon.
Hint: Book you’re Museum of Broadway tickets at the same time you’re book your Broadway Show tickets. That’s a must!
What my hungry writer’s heart found most inspiring were the words.
Handwritten Lyrics from Chorus Line with “picture of someone” scribbled out and “picture of a person I don’t know” written below it.
Richard Rogers word list—surrey, curry, flurry—scribbled for Surry with the Fringe on Top.
Hmmm... what do you think sounds better: “Ducks and chicks and geese make tasty curry? or better scurry?”
And more words!
Artist Rachel Marks’ revisioning of the entire Showboat score into art.
Museum of Broadway. Inspiring! Don’t take my word for it!
The website has a sneak preview video—I tried to post it but couldn’t embed, so click over and watch: Museum of Broadway: About (themuseumofbroadway.com)
