| Musical Notes Revisited | A Practical Guide To Staffing and Staging Standards of the American Musical Theatre. Entries are organized in the following manner. They begin with the name of the show, authors, composers, lyricists, the show’s source and information on the original source. This introductory data is followed by information on the Original Production. This includes the name of the theatre, date of opening, number of performances, director, choreographer, musical director, arranger, principals and their vocal type. Immediately following is a section entitled Chorus and Smaller Roles. This is usually not according to the original production, but a recommended minimum.
The production information is followed by an in depth Synopsis of each show with musical numbers in capital letters for quick reference. This section attempts to give the reader a “feeling” of the show by detailing the story, capturing the essence of the characters, and giving specific scenic locations.
The Notes on the Production section includes Tony Awards, ideas on technical and costume requirements, possible pitfalls and budget requirements.
Songs of Special Interest details certain songs suitable for classroom study and Revues. Instrumentation gives the full orchestration sent by the various rental organizations. It is possible to trim the size, but this is best left to each musical director.
The final entry includes data on published materials and the names of the various Licensing Agencies. | Website
