Paris and the Musical: The City of Light on Stage and Screen

Olaf Jubin
4.9/5 (9645 ratings)
Description:Paris and the Musical explores how the famous city has been portrayed on stage and screen, investigates why the city has been of such importance to the genre, and tracks how it has developed as a trope over the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.From global hits An American in Paris, Gigi, Les Mis�rables, Moulin Rouge! and The Phantom of the Opera to the less widely-known Bless the Bride, Can-Can, Irma la Douce and Marguerite, the French capital is a central character in an astounding number of Broadway, Hollywood and West End musicals. This collection of eighteen essays combines cultural studies, sociology, musicology, art and adaptation theory, and gender studies to examine the envisioning and dramatisation of Paris, and its depiction as a place of romance, hedonism and libertinism or as 'the capital of the arts'.The interdisciplinary nature of this collection renders it as a fascinating resource for a wide range of courses; it will be especially valuable for students and scholars of Musical Theatre, and those interested in Theatre and Film History more generally.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
