Broadway Rising
Self
There is no New York without Broadway. It’s both a landmark and a community, an industry and a people, making magic in a dark theater, eight times a week. During the pandemic, over 96,000 people lost their jobs and an entire ecosystem of small businesses were brought to a standstill. Broadway Rising tells the story of the broadway community and its harrowing journey back to the stage following the COVID-19 shutdown. This feature documentary brings everyone into the spotlight - from the costume makers to the ushers to the producers to the stars.

Estos militantes, muchos de los cuales eran muy jóvenes, se atrincheraron dentro del establecimiento, exigiendo varias medidas para una atención sanitaria más segura y accesible para la comunidad del South Bronx.
