Broadway Beat and BroadwayWorld.com were on hand and bring you these highlights from the production and interviews with the cast!
According to press notes, the audience will "follow a famous family of stage stars as they go about the drama of the day: choosing scripts, dashing off to performances, stealing kisses from handsome beaus. But what's this business about the youngest diva wanting to quit the stage for domestic bliss? Never, darling!"
