This Critical Companion to the American Stage Musical provides the
perfect introductory text for students of theatre, music and
cultural studies. It traces the history and development of the
industry and art form in America with a particular focus on its
artistic and commercial development in New York City from the early
20th century to the present. Emphasis is placed on commercial,
artistic and cultural events that influenced the Broadway musical
for an ever-renewing, increasingly broad and diverse audience: the
Gilded Age, the Great Depression, the World War II era, the British
invasion in the 1980s and the media age at the turn of the
twenty-first century. Supplementary essays by leading scholars
provide detailed focus on the American musical's production and
preservation, as well as its influence on daily life on the local,
national, and international levels. For students, these essays
provide models of varying approaches and interpretation, equipping
them with the skills and understanding to develop their own
analysis of key productions.
