This volume takes a survey approach that builds on case studies ranging from classic musicals West Side Story and Bye, Bye, Birdie through to the contemporary musicals In The Heights and Hamilton. As well as considering the shows themselves it also unpacks the careers and contributions of Latine artists such as Chita Rivera and Graciela Daniele.Published in Methuen Drama's Topics in Musical Theatre series, this volume is perfect for students of musical theatre and those wishing to deepen their appreciation of the artform.
