IS THE HOME OF BROADWAY AND
THERE ARE LOTS OF NEW MUSICAL
ADAPTATIONS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW.
THEY'LL TAKE SOMETHING AND MAKE
IT INTO A MUSICAL LIKE "PRETTY
WOMAN", THERE'S A SHOW OPENING
BASED ON THE LIFE OF CHER.
WE CAME UP WITH A FAKE MUSICAL
BASED ON A REAL LOCAL EVENT,
SOMETHING THAT WAS A MOVIE AS
WELL.
THE MIRACLE ON THE HUDSON, THE
STORY OF FLIGHT 1549 AND THE
HEROIC CAPTAIN SULLY
SULLENBERGER.
WE MADE UP A POSTER AND WENT TO
THE THEATER DISTRICT AND ASKED
PEOPLE ON THE STREET TO GIVE US
A POSITIVE REVIEW.
YOU KNOW THOSE COMMERCIALS WHERE
PEOPLE SAY HOW GREAT THE PLAY
WAS.
WELL, WE ASKED THEM TO DO THAT
FOR A PLAY THAT DOES NOT EXIST,
AND WITH THAT SAID, IT'S TIME
FOR THE FIRST EVER EDITION OF
FRAUDWAY.
>> WE'RE SHOOTING ONE OF THOSE
COMMERCIALS WHERE PEOPLE COME
OUT OF THE THEATER AND TALK
ABOUT A SHOW THEY JUST SAW.
YOU'VE SEEN THOSE COMMERCIALS?
>> YES.
>> THIS IS A PLAY THAT HASN'T
COME OUT YET CALLED "HUDSON WE
HAVE A PROBLEM" STARRING MATTHEW
BRODERICK.
JUST LOOK IN THERE AND ACT LIKE
YOU JUST CAME OUT OF THE SHOW
AND TALK ABOUT HOW GREAT IT WAS.
>> OH MY GOD, IT WAS FANTASTIC.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THE ACTION.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THE ACTING.
IT WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD.
>> I ACTUALLY SAW THE PLANE
GOING DOWN THE HUDSON AT THE
TIME SO IT WAS LIKE RELIVING MY
HISTORY.
IT WAS AWESOME.
>> EVERYTHING ABOUT THE SHOW WAS
AMAZING.
LIKE THE SET, THE KCOSTUMES,
EVERYTHING WAS SO GOOD.
I WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN.
>> I FOUND THE USE OF THE "N"
WORD SURPRISING BUT TASTEFUL.
SOMETIMES YOU NEED TO RAISE
ISSUES SO THAT YOU CAN DISCUSS
THEM.
>> TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE
SCENE WHERE SULLY GOES AND
VISITS THE -- GOOSE'S WIFE AND
HAS TO TELL HER HE'S NOT COMING
HOME.
>> IT WAS REALLY -- THERE WAS
SOME REALLY SHAKY MOMENTS IN
THERE WHEN SULLY SULLIVAN HAD TO
GO TALK TO THE GOOSE'S WIFE AND
TELL HIM THAT HE HAD PERISHED.
THAT WAS A HEART WRENCHING
MOMENT IN THE PLAY.
>> WE HAD GREAT SEATS.
WE WERE RIGHT AT THE FRONT.
THE WHOLE STAGE WAS FILLED WITH
WATER AND WE GOT SPLASHED AND
WERE COMPLETELY SOAKED.
>> YOU WERE IN THE SPLASH ZONE.
DO YOU MIND IF WE SPLASH YOU
WITH A LITTLE WATER?
>> DO IT.
>> THROW A LITTLE WATER IN YOUR
FACE.
>> OKAY, GREAT.
I WAS IN THE SPLASH ZONE.
>> THAT'S TOO LATE AND YOU
MISSED THEM.
>> I WAS IN THE SPLASH ZONE.
>> THAT'S WAY TOO -- IT'S GOT TO
COME RIGHT AFTER.
>> HE DIDN'T SAY IT WAS GREAT.
YOU SAID HE SHOULD SAY IT WAS
GREAT.
I WAS WAITING FOR THE GREAT.
I'M SORRY.
>> I WAS IN THE SPLASH ZONE.
IT WAS GREAT.
OR IT WAS GREAT, I WAS IN THE
SPLASH ZONE.
>> I'LL SAY, I WAS IN THE SPLASH
ZONE, IT WAS GREAT.
>> PERFECT.
>> I WAS IN THE SPLASH ZONE AND
THEN WE SPLASH.
>> OKAY.
>> I WAS --
>> THAT'S -- HE'S GOT TO SAY IT.
HE'S GOT TO SAY THE LINE.
WHAT'S YOUR NAME, SIR?
>> FELIX.
>> WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
>> I'M FROM THE BRONX, NEW YORK.
>> WE'RE TRYING TO APPEAL BUNCH
OF DIFFERENT DEMOGRAPHICS AND
OCCUPATIONS OF LOCAL PEOPLE.
CAN WE GET YOU TO PUT ON A
COUPLE OUTFITS.
>> AS A PILOT FOR PROSPECT PARK,
THIS PLAY WAS A SMOOTH FLIGHT.
THIS PLAY WAS GRANDE.
I WAS MOPPING UP MY TEARS.
AS A WELDER FROM WILLIAMSBURG,
THIS SHOW IS HOT STUFF.
AS A BEEKEEPER FROM BAY RIDGE,
THIS SHOW HAD THE AUDIENCE
BUZZING.
AS A CLOWN FROM CHINATOWN, THIS
SHOW IS THE GREATEST SHOW ON
EARTH.
AS A PRIEST FROM PENN STATION,
THIS SHOW IS HEAVENLY.
AS A RABBI, THIS SHOW IS A
MITZVAH.
THIS SHOW MAKES MY NIPPLES HARD.
>> GO SEE "HUDSON, WE HAVE A
PROBLEM."
>> I LAUGHED MY CRASH OFF.
>> I WAS COVERED IN AIRPLANE
GASOLINE AND I DIDN'T EVEN MIND.
>> IT WAS THE MUSTACHE RIDE OF A
LIFETIME.
>> IT'S A BIRD, IT'S A PLANE,
IT'S BOATS!
>> THERE YOU GO.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU FOR LYING.
YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A COUPLE OF
THE STARS OF FRAUDWAY HERE IN
OUR AUDIENCE TONIGHT.
THANK YOU, FELLAS.
THANK YOU FOR BEING SO
MALLEABLE.

TELEVISION SO HERE NOW TO BRING
