What was once a form of entertainment characterized by sentimental standards, such as <i>Camelot</i> and <i>Hello, Dolly!</i> became one of brilliant and bittersweet masterpieces, such as <i>Cabaret</i> and <i>Fiddler on the Roof</i>. In <i>Open a New Window</i>, Mordden continues his history of the Broadway musical with the decade that bridged the gap between the fanciful shows of the fifties, such as <i>Call Me, Madam</i>, and the sophisticated fare of the seventies, including <i>A Little Night Music</i> and <i>Follies</i>. Here in brilliant detail are the decade and the people that transformed the Broadway musical--from the writer who knows it best.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>". . .intelligent and enlightening. . ." --<i>Booklist</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Ethan Mordden</b> is the author of <i>Make Believe: The Broadway Musical in the 1920s</i>, <i>Everything's Coming Up Roses: The Broadway Musical in the 1950s</i>, and <i>Beautiful Mornin': The Broadway Musical in the 1940s</i>.</p>
