Program Description

Event Details

The lecture is a tribute to the short-lived musicals we hate to admit we loved. Beloved Musical Flops – From Gilbert & Sullivan to Jerry Herman, from Ethel Merman to Kristen Chenoweth, every great name in musical theater has had their share of failures. Candide, Dear World, Happy Hunting, Carrie . . . why do some flops develop armies of devoted fans? And which flops have later returned as acclaimed hits? John Kenrick returns with his colorful blend of video clips and backstage lore to pull back the curtain on some of Broadway’s most memorable “cult musicals,” showing us why they remain loved long after their final curtains.
