The Broadway play 'Good Night, and Good Luck', starring George Clooney, made history by being broadcast live on CNN, reaching millions just before its closure. This performance, which highlighted Edward R. Murrow's fight against McCarthyism, excited the cast, with members expressing both nerves and exhilaration. BroadwayHD CEO Bonnie Comley emphasized the importance of this moment in a broader trend of streaming live theater. While it marked a historic first for Broadway, it echoes Clooney's past experience with live broadcast during his early acting career on television.
Clark Gregg described after the performance as the thrill to have that suddenly become millions.
Fran Kranz said after the June 7 broadcast before the June 8 closing, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous.
Bonnie Comley called the CNN broadcast a headline moment in a much bigger story.
Even though the CNN broadcast made Broadway history, it's actually deja vu in some respects for Clooney.
