The broadcast transitions from a cynical critique of modern urban life—touching on everything from rising rents and failing infrastructure to the "froth-filled" coffees at Starbucks—into an elegant retrospective on the evolution of Broadway and the theater industry. Central to the show is an intimate interview with James Haspel, who provides a rare glimpse into the private life of Marilyn Monroe, distinguishing the "Norma Jean" he knew from the "mask" of the Hollywood icon.
