Synopsis
While most discussions of race in American theater emphasize the representation of race mainly in terms of character, plot, and action, Race in American Musical Theater highlights elements of theatrical production and reception that are particular to musical theater. Examining how race functions through the recurrence of particular racial stereotypes and storylines, this introductory volume also looks at casting practices, the history of the chorus line, and the popularity of recent shows such as Hamilton . Moving from key examples such as Show Boat! and South Pacific through to all-Black musicals such as Dreamgirls, Bring in 'da Noise, Bring in 'da Funk, and Jelly's Last Jam , this concise study serves as a critical survey of how race is presented in the American musical theater canon. Providing readers with historical background, a range of case studies and models of critical analysis, this foundational book prompts questions from how stereotypes persist to "who tells your story?"

- a***a (389)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoI order from this seller often. This seller is very reliable. There are other sellers that offer the same kind of discount deals as this one, but they are not as reliable. This seller always delivers without letting me down. The items (I order mostly DVDs) are always sent complete, as described, and securely packaged. My only gripe is, packages take on average 2 weeks to arrive. However, I'll accept that, over bad service any day. I recommend this seller.
- 2***4 (174)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoSeller shipped out the DVD miniseries called THE KENNEDY'S to me very quickly and it arrived earlier than listed and well wrapped up for the journey. They have great buy two get one free sales and their prices are great. The dvd set was listed as good and it showed up looking as new. I keep coming back to them for their veritery, prices, shipping speed and communication. Don't know yet if it's a good miniseries, but it is a good seller to buy from.The Kennedys (N° 187493404678)
- m***8 (76)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoThe classic Curious George DVD I ordered arrived in great condition and as described in the description. The disc was dirty and appeared to be scratched but it played just fine. I received a good quality product at a great price. This seller, Dream Books Co., shipped quickly and took care in the packaging. I bought a lot of DVDs from this seller and they handled a large purchase very well; I'm not missing anything. I'm happy with my purchase so far. I will buy from Dream Books in the future.
