Broadway and Times Square Insider Tour with Theater Professional
Explore the Theater District and Times Square with those who know it best — the actors, directors, and dreamers who give the Great White Way its heart and soul. You’ll meet your guide at the feet of George M. Cohan, pioneer of New York theater. From there, your immersive Broadway experience will lift the curtain on a world of auditions and opening nights, tragedies and successes. Hear the stories of the legends who’ve played on these stages: Ethel Barrymore, Judy Garland, Humphrey Bogart, Julie Andrews, and many more. Learn about the sordid secrets that happened backstage and the ghosts who still stride the boards. As you explore the Theater District, your guide will share their own tale of Broadway dreams. Our top-rated pros have extensive knowledge of show business and will weave their personal experiences into the rich historical narrative. What better way to see the bright lights of Broadway than through the eyes of an artist?
