Breaking the Broadway Mould

For years, Broadway producers have been chasing a younger, more diverse audience than the relatively homogeneous crowd that usually fills the orchestra seats.

Joining us are Jeremy McCarter, theater critic of New York magazine; and Richard Zoglin, senior editor and theater critic of Time magazine.
