Zoom Limit 25
We will explore the history and evolution of the Broadway musical. From its very beginnings in minstrel shows through the Golden Age of Rodgers and Hammerstein to the hip hop of Hamilton to the successful revival of Merrily We Roll Along, we will discuss and view excerpts of the shows that made Broadway great. Along the way, we will meet the composers, directors, choreographers, actors and designers that contributed to this very American genre. Join me for a very memorable trip to Broadway from the comfort of your home!
