Are we living in another Golden Age of the Broadway Musical? Some may say that the American Broadway musical began with Oklahoma. Others say Show boat...(and if we are getting really technical, one may even say The Black Crook...) William Cortez-Statham will try to answer this question by delving into various stages that he classifies as definitive eras ("Golden Ages") of the American Musical Theatre from it's birth to those two gentlemen we now all know so well on Broadway: Alexander Hamilton and Evan Hansen.
