 Broadway Musicals Show by Show: Sixth Edition May 10, 2010
M Keating (NJ)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Broadway Musicals Show by Show has long had a reputation as a comprehensive reference book on Broadway. It has never been simply a listing of each and every show that opened each year on Broadway, but rather, as explained in the Preface, included are those shows that Stanley Green, and later Kay Green, felt were memorable and should be mentioned.
"Broadway Musicals Show by Show is perhaps a misleading title as by no means every Broadway show is to be found between the covers; merely an annual selection of those Stanley thought, to use his own words, were "memorable" in each year. To have produced a fully comprehensive study of the subject would have resulted in a work whose very size would have rendered it indigestible to the average reader. As it is Stanley has distilled each year to its essence and produced a readable and informative work that fits neatly into anyone's book shelves."
From the Preface by Ian MacBey

Broadway Musicals Show by Show: Sixth EditionExcellent book, containing very interesting facts and figures, reviews,casts, runs,& theatres played. This edition includes upto Young Frankstein. Very handy for revealing obscure facts about the shows. It has (and still is) very helpful in my selection of shows to add to my Musicals CD collection.
Indispensable September 14, 2009
Philip Dorian (New Jersey)
As a published theater critic, I find this book indispensable. Just enough info about dates, casts, directors, composers, songs, etc. to fill in memory gaps. I buy every new edition (current 5th edition covers through 2007 season) and it's soon dogeared from use.
Very good September 15, 2009
Shauna Ross (Seattle WA, USA)
Thanks for the book. It was in great condition. Only wish you would have gotten it to me a little sooner

This book is great for any fan of Broadway musicals. It traces the history of the most important shows and by regular updating gives the reader a useful reference tool.
