Topics in Musical Theatre

Short introductory books on significant theories, concepts, forms, and elements of musical theatre. Latinidad in Musical Theatre offers an accessible exploration of the substantial contribution of Latinx culture, specifically via music, dance, and choreography to the last century of the American Musical from Carmen Miranda to Lin-Manuel Miranda. Latinx artists, music and dance have been influencing musical theatre since the early 1900s, but it’s only in the last 50 years or so that Latinx artists have been able to fully contribute to the art form, not just via appropriation or stereotype, but by owning their own narrative, creatively and intellectually. This volume takes a survey approach that builds on case studies ranging from classic musicals The Pajama Game,West Side Story and Bye, Bye, Birdie through to the contemporary musicals In The Heights and Hamilton. As well as considering the shows themselves it also unpacks the careers and contributions of Latinx artists such as Chita Rivera and Graciela Daniele. Published in Methuen Drama's Topics in Musical Theatre series, this volume is perfect for students of musical theatre and those wishing to deepen their appreciation of the artform.

A lively cultural history of the Broadway Musical that for the first time explores and reveals how this uniquely American art form was created almost exclusively by people who were marginalized from almost all other aspects of mainstream society - especially Immigrant, Jewish, Queer, African American, and female artists.

What was Broadway's first Jukebox Musical?What does 42nd Street have in common with Moulin Rouge! and Mamma Mia! ?Will Broadway ever fall out of love with the Jukebox Musical form?Essential Musicals: Jukebox Musicals defines what is meant by this much over-used term whilst taking care to draw a distinction between it and a revue. Taking a historical, survey approach it looks at when these shows first appeared on Broadway and how they become a dominant genre, offering a critical approach as to how something that used to be an anomaly is now the norm. Through a chronological look at 10 case studies this book asks questions related to rising production costs through to audience appeal behind bringing well-known catalogs of music to the stage.

Adaptation in Musical Theatre examines adaptation as inherent to musical theatre, an art form with an established history of recycling existing texts, through a concise overview of the concept and several contemporary case studies that illustrate this relationship. 

Adaptations are everywhere in popular culture, wherein most texts have been experienced elsewhere in some form. Adaptation in Musical Theatre focuses on the inherent relationship between adaptation and musical theatre, an art form in which most musicals are adaptations of existing texts. Despite a shift in production model in recent decades, where many musicals are now based on internationally known texts from conglomerates like Disney, adding song and dance to an existing work is a long-established trend has provided a plethora of different structural and stylistic choices across the musical theatre canon. 

Through multiple contemporary case studies, this book examines the various forms of adaptation in musical theatre, with each case study offering a different approach to adapting existing work. From Les Misérables to Wicked, by way of Legally Blonde and Fun Home, this book proposes that despite adaptations often being denigrated by critics as lazy and safe-bet choices for producers, the resulting musicals are incredibly diverse and crafted in a multitude of ways. Adaptations are not bland and unchallenging for audiences, as some detractors have described them, but the lifeblood of musical theatre past and present.

Published in Methuen Drama's Topics in Musical Theatre series, this book offers students a concise and readable study of a key form within musical theatre studies using relevant and contemporary case studies.
