About this book

In this captivating history of Broadway musicals, witness the evolution of the Great White Way—from its glittering golden age to its bold, era-defining reinventions. Packed with original newspaper articles, reviews, and archival interviews, this collection offers a front-row seat to the triumphs, transformations, and timeless magic of Broadway musicals.

Trace the journey of musical theatre as it moved from classic show tunes and chorus lines to daring themes and groundbreaking storytelling. Explore how productions like Annie brought heart and hope to audiences during turbulent times, while The Rocky Horror Show shattered conventions with its rebellious spirit and cult appeal.

From the lavish sets of The Phantom of the Opera to the stripped-back intensity of Rent, and the genre-blending brilliance of Hamilton, this book reveals how Broadway has continually redefined itself—mirroring the changing times while shaping the cultural conversation
