520    "Like every art form, musical theatre has been changing 
       and evolving since its inception more than 2000 years ago.
       Musical Theatre: A History presents a history of stage 
       musicals from the earliest accounts of the ancient Greeks 
       and Romans, for whom songs were common elements in staging,
       to Jacques Offenbach in Paris during the 1840s, to Gilbert
       and Sullivan in England, to the rise of music halls and 
       vaudeville traditions in America, and eventually to 
       "Broadway's Golden Age" with George M. Cohan, Victor 
       Herbert, Jerome Kern, George and Ira Gershwin, Rodgers and
       Hart, Oscar Hammerstein, Leonard Bernstein, and Andrew 
       Lloyd Webber."--Jacket.
