Abstract
COURSE DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES Surveying the art form known as musical theatre from its multiple origins through contemporary trends, we will use music, film, librettos and scores, and local productions to gain a broader understanding and appreciation of this performance genre. While we will look at the development of the musical as an art form (Kenrick), we will also explore musicals ―as a way of illuminating broader social and cultural themes of the times (Bush)‖. Open to the general student, the course serves as an elective for the major/minor in Theatre.
