}}The Best of Broadway is a 60-minute live television anthology series that aired on CBS Television on Wednesdays at 10{{nbsp}}p.m. Easter Standard Time from September 15, 1954, to May 4, 1955, for a total of nine episodes. Each show was broadcast live in color from New York City, was an adaptation of a famous Broadway play, and included commercials for Westinghouse featuring Betty Furness.[2] Using a "giant new studio,"[3] plays were presented in front of a studio audience, which contributed a Broadway-like element.[1]

This series ran every fourth week, with Pabst Blue Ribbon Bouts being aired the other three weeks.[3] After this series, and Ford Star Jubilee (1955–56), CBS largely refrained from color broadcasting until the mid-60's.[4]
