ONLINE: Most courses on Broadway musicals focus on the works of a certain period or those by a certain team of creators. However, some shows resist such categories: either they’re not typical of their era or their creative teams didn’t create many shows. This course will explore six Broadway musicals - all critical and popular successes - that meet the criteria of both “singular” and “sensational”: “The Music Man,” “Damn Yankees,” “A Chorus Line,” “Ain’t Misbehavin’,” “Dreamgirls,” and “The Wiz.” The course is primarily lecture with video and audio clips; students will be able to ask questions and make comments during each class. | Lecture + Q&A.
