My Beat from Times Square to Columbus Circle, the gaudiest, the most violent, the lonesome smile in the world. Broadway's My Beat with Larry Thor as Detective Danny Glover. In the time of April, Broadway walks a street dappled with sunlight, the time of the breeze sowing in from the river, touching your cheek and making a smile.

It's April, but you've got to make a living. Maybe next year, kid. Through the Venetian Blinds, the morning sunlight patterned itself on the floor across the Ratan furniture.
