Broadway musicals A to Z

Guides to 151 Broadway musicals, each with the story, the score and its signature songs, the original Broadway production, and the characters.

The list runs from 1920s musical comedies to shows that opened in the last few seasons. Titles are sorted A to Z with a leading “The” or “A” ignored, so The Phantom of the Opera files under P. Each entry shows the year the musical premiered on Broadway, its principal composer, its genre, and the decade the story is set in. To browse by era instead, use the decade list at the end of the page.
