Classic Movies is pleased to announce that it will be screening “From Broadway to Hollywood,” the wildly entertaining concert and documentary created by pianist, raconteur, and cultural historian Richard Glazier, as part of the upcoming virtual TCM Classic Film Festival. In this one-of-a-kind program, Glazier weaves together rare interviews, dazzling piano performances, and insightful commentary to present a riveting look at the history of Broadway and Hollywood through music. Glazier was able to sit down with an incredible group of luminaries who share their unique perspectives about the composers and shows that defined this American art form. Some of the people who appear rarely gave interviews but were happy to talk to Richard about the momentous contributions they or their family members made.
