This richly visual, information-packed celebration of popular theatre's most enduring art form brings to life the best-loved shows of all time — from Annie Get Your Gun to the Ziegfeld Follies, including Brigadoon, Cabaret, Evita, Chorus Line, Cats, Carousel and Anything Goes. These are the very greatest musicals that were either created on Broadway or transferred to Broadway. Each entry includes: expert commentary that sets the play in historical and cultural context; features the show's creators and performers; a plot synopsis, cast & song list, production details, backstage anecdotes, and more; four or five beautifully reproduced colour photographs from each show.
