Chat with our AI personalities
The Theatre District is in the middle of Manhattan (as opposed to Upper Manhattan or Lower Manhattan). Its nickname is, "The Great White Way." The Theatre District runs south to north from approximately 40th or 42nd Street to 53rd or 54th Street. West to east, it consists of just two avenues: Broadway and 7th Avenue. So, it is the length of Broadway and 7th Avenue from 40th/42nd to 53rd/54th Streets.

A Broadway roster is the line-up of what plays, musicals, and other shows will be showing on Broadway. If an act will be done on Broadway, it is added to the roster.
when a show is "off Broadway it means that the show is still playing, but no longer playing in a Broadway theatre.This is not actually true. A show that is running off Broadway may or may not have ever been on Broadway. Many shows start off-broadway and get picked up to move into a Broadway theatre. And many more ONLY run off-broadway.
