More Than Your Average Backstage Tour

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
"Show Business: The Road to Broadway" is an ambitious documentary that follows the four high-profile productions that would eventually become Tony nominees for Best Musical in 2003-04. Today, director Dori Berinstein and Tony Award-winning composer Robert Lopez (from Avenue Q), join us to unveil the brutal side of a glamorous art form. Also: Banjo-strumming Kentucky native Matt Bauer reinterprets country and bluegrass to create a hauntingly modern sound. He plays live in studio.
