Within fifteen years, however, it had become one of the most powerful entertainment conglomerates in the world. Staging a Comeback: Broadway, Hollywood, and the Disney Renaissance argues that far from an executive feat, this impressive turnaround was accomplished in no small part by the storytellers recruited during this period. Drawing from archival research, interviews, and textual analysis, Peter C. Kunze examines how the hiring of theatrically trained talent into managerial and production positions reorganized the lagging animation division and revitalized its output. By Aladdin, it was clear that animation-not live-action-was the center of a veritable "Renaissance" at Disney and the animated musicals driving this revival laid the groundwork for the company's growth into Broadway theatrical production. The Disney Renaissance not only reinvigorated the Walt Disney Company, but both reflects and influenced changes in Broadway and Hollywood more broadly"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a "Just waiting for the prince to arrive" : Broadway and Hollywood before the Disney Renaissance, 1982 -- "Sort of like the Sopranos took over the studio" : regime change at Disney, 1983-86 -- "Make the audience fall in love with her" : Howard Ashman and Alan Menken, The little mermaid, and Disney, 1987-89 -- "A celebration of certain sensibilities" : Howard Ashman and Alan Menken, Beauty and the beast, and Disney, 1990-91 -- "Like the old-fashioned musicals did" : Robert Jess Roth, Beauty and the beast, and Disney, 1991-94 -- "I don't do cute" : Julie Taymor, The lion king, and Disney, 1994-98. 610 20 $a Walt Disney Company. 610 20 $a Disney Theatrical Productions. 610 27 $a Walt Disney Company. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00622498 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a Musical films $z United States $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Animated films $z United States $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Musicals $z United States $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Musical theater $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Stage adaptations $z United States. 650 0 $a Criticism. 650 0 $a History. 650 7 $a Animated films. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00809611 650 7 $a Musical films. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01030715 650 7 $a Musical theater. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01030807 650 7 $a Musicals. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01030814 650 7 $a Stage adaptations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01432102 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117014200.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4AF92E24851711EEB4A9908744ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
