First published in 2007, Oklahoma! The Making of an American Musical tells the full story of the beloved Rodgers and Hammerstein musical. Author Tim Carter examines archival materials, manuscripts, and journalism, and the lofty aspirations and mythmaking that surrounded the musical from itsvery inception. The book made for a watershed moment in the study of the American musical: the first well-researched, serious musical analysis of the show by a musicologist, it was also the first biography of a musical, transforming a field that had, prior to this, oriented itself around creatorsrather than creations. In this new and fully revised edition, Carter draws on newly uncovered sources, including the Rouben Mamoulian Papers at the Library of Congress, which offer new correspondence, contracts, and even new versions of the working script used - and annotated - throughout the show''s rehearsal process. Carter also focuses on the key players and concepts behind the musical, including the original play on which it was based (Lynn Riggs''s Green Grow the Lilacs) and the Theatre Guild''s Theresa Helburn and Lawrence Langner, who fatefully brought Rodgers and Hammerstein together for their firstcollaboration. The crucial new perspective these revisions and additions provide make this edition of Carter''s seminal work a compulsory purchase for all teachers, students, and lovers of musical theatre. | Oklahoma by Tim Carter Paperback | Indigo Chapters Books > Music & Movies & Performing Arts > Music P10122, Tim Carter<
