Everything About Theater June 2003 to May 2004
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Since it's now in its 85th edition, it's probably a little late to suggest this, but I think this book is named wrong. It's far more than just the best plays, it's virtually every play. Of course it covers Broadway. But it also covers OFF Broadway, and OFF OFF Broadway. And it covers the major regional theaters around the country. Yes, it does have a section on what they consider to be the best plays of the season. But this section is only about a hundred pages and is really a description of these 'best' plays. I almost never agree with their selection of these as the really best plays, but I expect that their internal discussions must get pretty 'spirited.' Basically this is the book of what happened in theater from June 2003 to May 2004. Some of the things they cover: cast changes in ongoing Broadway plays, new plays published, long running plays, an In Memoriam, awards -- and the list could go on. It's what happened in theater.
