LADY, BE GOOD! with William A. Everett
Manage episode 433606270 series 3244640
We've got our first "musicologist" and first Gershwin brothers musical in the same episode! This week we welcome William A. Everett to discuss George & Ira's first full collaboration LADY, BE GOOD! Not only did this musical star the Astaire siblings, but it also landed in 1924, a year you'll soon realize was one of the most important in all of Broadway history. Don't miss this jam-packed episode that in under an hour manages to include both HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL references and highbrow words like "diagetic." (insert exclamation point here!)
Order Bill's new book The Year that Made the Musical: 1924 and the Glamour of Musical Theatre
If you enjoyed this conversation, give a listen to our episode on THE DROWSY CHAPERONE with Ken Werther, a modern take on a similar musical style.
