The recent documentary On Broadway<\/em><\/a> serendipitously joins our Virtual Cinema lineup this week following its downtown theatrical premiere. In a NY Times ‘Critic’s Pick’ reviewer Maya Phillips enthused, ” ‘On Broadway’ sure knows how to work a theater-lover’s heart…[and] provides a fascinating textbook chronology….
