Savoring Broadway: A Broadway Maven MasterClass
Friday February 7, 2025 9:30am - 10:30am EST
Sutton Center
Think more deeply about musical theatre in this eye-opening and innovative look at Broadway shows from Oklahoma! to A Strange Loop. Substacker, YouTuber, and Broadway Maven David Benkof has made a career of finding novel interpretations to beloved musicals. In this whirlwind journey through a century of Broadway, participants will tear off the curtain to reveal some of the symbolic and thematic aspects of their favorite shows that are easy to miss but unmistakable once they're pointed out. What's the symbolism of butter in Rodgers & Hammerstein shows? What Greek myths are represented in shows like A Chorus Line and Evita? What are the central symbols in Heathers, Waitress, and Kimberly Akimbo? No background is necessary, as David will share plenty of clips, examples, and explanations.
