General method acting seen on this US street (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

broadway

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'street' is the definition.
(Broadway is an example)

'general method' is the wordplay.
'general' becomes 'broad' ('broad' can be similar in meaning to 'general').
'method' becomes 'way' (I've seen this before).
'broad'+'way'='BROADWAY'

'acting seen on this us' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for broadway that I've seen before include "A bow yard for New York theatre" , "Large main road" , "that divides Manhattan" , "where shows are staged" , "New York theatre area" .)
