I love love love those oversized coffee table books aobut specific shows, or picture books, about musicals and/or plays. Those playbill yearbooks are amazing! the books on Jersey Boys, Mary Poppins, The Sound Of Music, Mamma Mia!, Broadway Musicals, How Does The Show Go On?, etc. (why no coffee table books on Spring Awakening, The Drowsy Chaperone, Gypsy (a complete history), etc.?) - anybody have The South Pacific Companion? Is it worth purchasing??

I really like the books for The Producers and the Cabaret revival. The Rent Bible is nice as well.

It's not about a specific show but you should check out "The Fourth Wall"
