Luminaries who wrote for Broadway during this decade included Irving Berlin, George M. Cohan, Rudolf Friml, George Gershwin, Oscar Hammerstein II, Lorenz Hart, Jerome Kern, Cole Porter, Richard Rodgers, Sigmund Romberg, and Vincent Youmans, and the era's stars include Eddie Cantor, Al Jolson, Ruby Keeler, and Marilyn Miller. Lighthearted Cinderella musicals dominated these years with such hits as Kern's long-running Sally, along with romanic operettas that dealt with princes and princesses in disguise. Plots about bootleggers and Prohibition abounded, but there were also serious musicals, including Kern and Hammerstein's masterpiece Show Boat. In addition to separate entries for each production, the book offers numerous appendixes, such as revues. plays with music, miscellaneous musical presenations, and a select list of pre-Broadway closings. Other appendixes include a discogrpahy, filmography, a list of published scripts, and a list of black-themed shows. -- Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Musicals $z New York $z New York $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a Musicals. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01030814 651 7 $a New York (State) $z New York. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204333 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 776 08 $i Online version: $a Dietz, Dan, 1945- author. $t Complete book of 1920s Broadway musicals $d Lanham : Rowman & Littlefield, [2019] $z 9781538112823 $w (DLC) 2018043893 941 $a 2 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20200421011058.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211031143.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5E1DE50C0B6411EAA467CE0D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
