Presenter: John Viars, Executive Director, Des Moines Playhouse
We'll start at the beginning of the 20th Century and work our way forward through the decades to the present day, listening to, talking about and singing the songs of the great American Musical Theatre songbook. You'll learn why New York became the center of American Musical Theatre, and why there is only one Broadway. There will be plenty of fun with anecdotes, revelations and insider information on just about every show we discuss.
