About this book

"Now updated for the first time since 1996, this comprehensive and widely used Broadway reference book has been expanded to include many of the most important and memorable productions of the American musical theatre, including revivals. Chronologically arranged beginning with The Black Crook in 1866, the sixth edition adds new entries and photos for numerous musicals from recent years, including The Lion King, Hairspray, The Producers, Wicked, Mamma Mia!, Thoroughly Modern Millie, Avenue Q and Young Frankenstein. It features a wealth of statistics and inside information, plus critical reception, cast lists, pithy commentary about each show, and numerous detailed indexes that no Broadway fan will want to be without."--Jacket.
