"In musical theatre circles, the phrase “Golden Age” is thrown around almost as much as ""Tony Award-winning.""


But what does it mean? And why is that canon of musicals written between 1943 (Oklahoma) and 1967 (Hair) still so frequently revived?


Dr. Kristin Stultz-Pressley, a Musical Theatre Historian and 2017 BroadwayCon presenter, has the answers. In the energetic style that has made her a frequent lecturer at both BroadwayCon and in theatres across the Southeast, she'll shine a spotlight on the sorts of shows that, decades after their world premieres, are still putting the ""Great"" in ""Great White Way."""
