Synopsis
Musical theater has a special place in the hearts of Australians. Whether it is The Boy from Oz , Bran Nue Dae , or Muriel's Wedding , we love to see Australian stories on the big stage with all the glamour, energy, and vibrancy a musical can offer. However magical they are on stage, performances leave behind few traces. Australia has a rich, hidden history of achievement in musical theater which is now largely forgotten. Drawing on their long careers in musical performance, and extensive research in public and private collections, Peter Wyllie Johnston and Peter Pinne have compiled a definitive account of the history of musical theater in Australia. From small amateur performances in the early days, to international achievements, to the new wave of Australian musicals from the 1990s right through to the explosion of creativity in the 21st century, they recount the emotional roller-coaster of successes and disappointments of one of the most demanding art forms. Also included is an authoritative guide to over 300 Australian musicals. Richly illustrated with color photos from the early days to the present, The Australian Musical is a book to treasure for years to come, and an invaluable resource for anyone involved with theater and music. "This history helps to cement my relationship with Australian musical theater, which is in for the long haul." --TED CHAPIN, President, The Rodgers & Hammerstein Organization "This fine book is surely the family tree of the Australian musical - an impressive study and fascinating read." --REG LIVERMORE AO "Groundbreaking . . . strips away assumptions and misconceptions about Australian musicals, and exposes their true history for the first time." -- from the introduction by MARK MADAMA, Associate Professor of Musical Theatre, University of Michigan, The definitive history of a century of musical theatre in Australia, including behind the scenes stories of achievement and disaster, fully illustrated in colour.

- w***r (187)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaI ordered 3 books. The "buy 2 get 1 free" almost sounded too good to be true. I was pleasantly surprised when the books arrived today. They are in great condition. No damaged corners. Shipping: Books were wrapped in plain brown paper. Then that packed into a padded envelope. I have saved you as a seller. Hopefully we can do business again.
