Broadway Revisited

Saturdays, 1pm

Program Website: http://kzoo.edu/~ahilgart/Bwy.htm

Host Art Hilgart presents words and music of American Broadway musical theater from Kern to Sondheim. Some programs revisit a single show, while others offer variations on a theme. Since 1991, Broadway Revisited has sought to share the pleasure of popular songs that constitute one of our significant national art forms.

July 12
Company: The Sondheim show about marriage and ambivalence.

July 19
The Broadway Restaurant Guide. Where to eat at home and abroad.

July 26
Mickey & Judy. Garland and Rooney, together at M-G-M.

August 2
It Takes Two. All Broadway duets this week, none of them love songs.

August 9
Androcles and the Lion. Richard Rodgers’ musical version of Bernard Shaw’s Androcles and the Lion.

August 16
The Depression. The Depression of the 1930's hit Broadway hard, and some of the songs of the period reflected the national condition. This week we’ll have some songs of despair and some of denial.

August 23
Before Broadway. While the upper classes were attending European operas and operettas, the masses were entertained by minstrels, music hall, vaudeville, and burlesque, the subjects of this week’s show.

August 30
This Land Is Your Land. We begin our 2008-2009 Season with a Labor Day Weekend recognition of working people through the songs of Woody Guthrie, as heard in the off-Broadway show Woody Guthrie’s American Song.
