Coming up Roses: The Broadway Musical in the 1950s
Ethan Mordden
With careful detail, Mordden highlights the shift in Broadway from shows that were mere star vehicles, showcasing big-name talents to bolder stories stuffed with character and atmosphere. Readers get the backstage scoop on why "The King and I" and "Gypsy" pushed the envelope and why "West Side Story" is so timeless.
