I am hoping that someone can recommend any good websites or words of wisdom. At the school that I teach at they are incorporating a new course, where we will be educating students about cultural art forms (Broadway, art, music, etc). I am looking for a website, or pieces of advice on what you think would be most beneficial in educating the youth of America about Broadway's great history!

Thanks!

Sounds like a great class! I would try google and see if you come up with anything. Good luck!

This sounds like it will be a wonderful class. Definelty watch the dvds of "Broadway The Golden Age" and "Broadway the History Of the American Misical". A book I would recomend is "It Happend on Broadway".

Thank you! I have the DVD's, a course outline, and some great additions. Oh, and I was able to find the book for less than a $1.00 on half.com.
