Description

Explore the deep connection between the French capital and the world of musical theater. Paris and the Musical examines how this iconic city functions as a central character across Broadway, Hollywood, and West End productions. This academic study tracks the evolution of Paris as a recurring trope throughout the 20th and 21st centuries, looking at how stage and screen portrayals have changed over time. This volume provides a detailed look at both global hits and lesser-known works. Readers can learn about the cultural significance of the city in massive productions like Les Miserables, Moulin Rouge!, and The Phantom of the Opera, as well as classics like An American in Paris and Gigi. The text also covers niche titles such as Bless the Bride, Can-Can, Irma la Douce, and Marguerite.
