<p>In the 1930s, Broadway's lights still burned brightly. Ethan Mordden completes his history of the Broadway musical by taking a look at this forgotten era. Shows like <i>Anything Goes</i> brought the glitter of Cole Porter and Merman's brass to the public. Innovations in dance were pioneered by Balanchine and others. Scenic advancements made Astaire's <i>The Band Wagon</i> move across the stage in novel ways. Gershwin's revolutionary <i>Porgy and Bess</i> entered the canon of American Classics. And <i>The Cradle Will Rock</i> and <i>Johnny Johnson</i> took the American political temperature. With his trademark wit and style, Ethan Mordden shines the spotlight on Broadway's forgotten decade.</p>
