Broadway Rising Movie 2022, Official Trailer, Release Date
A feature documentary chronicling the toll of the coronavirus pandemic on the Broadway community and its inspiring journey back to the stage. This documentary will follow multiple productions, from big sprawling musical productions juxtaposed with more intimate Broadway plays. We will follow these productions from the shutdown on March 12th to the first post-Covid opening night on Broadway. Through exclusive verité footage, archival footage, and a deep roster of sit-down interviews, we will tell the story of Broadway’s most complicated comeback yet. After more than a year of surviving the pandemic and rebounding from the loss of loved ones, loneliness, depression and their own battles with the illness which production will take the risk and go first? After months of downtime, how do you rehearse and train, socially distanced, a company that has gone from eight shows a week to zero? How do producers navigate complicated Covid protocols for the audience, cast, crew, and unions? How do you fill the seats with theatregoers who haven’t sat next to family and friends indoors for weeks and months, let alone complete strangers?
