OFF-BROADWAY

Dans le monde du théâtre new-yorkais, on qualifie de off-Broadway les pièces qui ne sont pas montées dans les grandes salles de Broadway. Les salles off-Broadway, généralement assez petites, proposent des billets à des prix raisonnables. Aujourd'hui, les théâtres les plus à l'avant-garde sont appelés off-off-Broadway.
