ABOUT THIS PRESENTATION

This one-hour lecture brings audiences into the heart of Broadway’s Golden Age, when the American musical became one of the country’s most beloved and influential art forms. Through landmark musicals such as Show Boat, Oklahoma!, South Pacific, My Fair Lady, West Side Story, and several others, audiences revisit the composers, lyricists, performers, and cultural moments that shaped modern musical theater. Perfect for lifelong learners, music lovers, and anyone who loves a great Broadway song.
