“The show must go on!" The official trailer for the Amy Rice-directed feature documentary, Broadway Rising, has been released. The trailer reveals a glimpse into the impact that the COVID-19 shutdown had on the Broadway community when all productions had to close and how businesses built their way back to the stage through determination and resilience.
The trailer for the new documentary highlights the impact of a Broadway shutdown no one thought would ever happen. Immediately, viewers are introduced to the intrinsic connection people have to Broadway, including Ginna Claire Mason, who played Glinda in Wicked. “Doing something eight times a week, it’s your entire existence being in theater, essentially,” Mason says, before the lights go off.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY “I was hospitalized for a week. By the time I came out of that, my business had been shut down, my industry had gone away,” John Kristiansen, a New York costume designer for Broadway, says in the trailer.
The ninety-three-minute-long feature documentary is directed by Rice and will include stories from Mason, McCollum, Kristiansen, Jewelle Blackman, Ruben Santiago-Hudson, Adam Perry, Robbie Fairchild, Lynn Nottage, Brian Blythe, T. Oliver Reid, and Tom Kirdahy. Tony Award-winners Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Justin Mikita are producers under their A Kid Named Beckett Productions, alongside Sam Bisbee , Christopher Cowan , and Rice .
