Program Description

Event Details

For nearly a century, Hollywood has been captivated by the allure of the Broadway musical. From the beginning of talkies up through today, most of the Great White Way's biggest hits have made the transfer to the movie theater. This talk will look at the colorful history of the Broadway-to-movie musical, and trace its development from truncated adaptations in which most of the songs were abandoned, to glorious interpretations like Milos Forman's Hair or Steven Spielberg's remake of West Side Story in 2021.
