Description

"While most discussions of race in American theatre emphasize the representation of race mainly in terms of character, plot, and action, Race in American Musical Theatre highlights elements of theatrical production and reception that are particular to musical theatre. This introductory book examines how race functions not only through the recurrence of particular character types and storylines, but also in musical style and song lyrics, in the staging of the chorus line, and in the use of cross-racial casting. Each chapter identifies a particular set of questions that encourages readers to look at works of musical theatre more critically and place them in a broader historical and social context. Drawing on problematic examples such as Thoroughly Modern Millie and Miss Saigon through to integrated shows such as Dreamgirls, Bring in Da Noise, Bring in Da Funk and Hamilton , it serves as a critical survey and analysis of the topic within the American musical theatre canon. Published within the Topics in Musical Theatre series, this volume also includes an appendix that provides background information and plot summaries for its key examples and a list of additional readings related to the topic."--
