In this lively book, Stacy Wolf illuminates the women of American musical theatre--performers, creators, and characters--from the start of the Cold War to the present day, creating a new, feminist history of the genre. The musicals discussed here are among the most beloved in the canon--"West Side Story," "Cabaret," "A Chorus Line," "Phantom of the Opera," and many others--with special emphasis on the blockbuster "Wicked." Along the way, Wolf demonstrates how the musical since the mid-1940s has actually been dominated by women--women onstage, women in the wings, and women offstage as spectators and fans. 000437981 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000437981 650_0 $$aMusicals$$zNew York (State)$$zNew York$$xHistory and criticism. 000437981 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aWolf, Stacy Ellen.$$tChanged for good.$$dNew York : Oxford University Press, 2011$$z9780195378238$$w(DLC) 2010036263$$w(OCoLC)659306181 000437981 8520_ $$bacq 000437981 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000437981 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=3054194$$zOnline Access 000437981 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:437981$$pGLOBAL_SET 000437981 980__ $$aEBOOK 000437981 980__ $$aBIB 000437981 982__ $$aEbook 000437981 983__ $$aOnline
