Back to Broadway is the twenty-sixth studio album by American singer Barbra Streisand, released in 1993, consisting of songs from Broadway musicals, a follow-up to her successful 1985 Broadway Album.
Back to Broadway debuted at number 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, earning Streisand the distinction of being the only female artist to have a number-one album in four different decades. The album sold 189,000 copies in the first week, and has been certified 2× Platinum by the RIAA, her fifth album to do so. The album was another smash hit for Streisand, also reaching the top 10 in Canada, the UK, and Australia.
