"This is Broadway" is a series of more than 70 short radio interviews created by The Broadway League, as an effort to promote Broadway theatre, some 32 years ago. The program consisted of weekly three-and-a-half minute interviews with Broadway luminaries, hosted by Isobel Robins and Richard Seff, and syndicated to radio stations around the country. Filled with charm and wit, these short features haven't been heard since their original broadcast, and feature a wide-array of then contemporary voices in the theatre, some now silenced and others having gone on to even greater fame and fortune. "This is Broadway" is a unique time capsule of Broadway theatre, revived for a new century through the collaboration of The Broadway League
and the American Theatre Wing.
