Title: The New York Times book of Broadway
Description: "From the New York Times comes a rich mosaic of the most unforgettable Broadway and Off Broadway moments of the last hundred years. Experience the night a star was born, a director's brilliant debut, a play that broke new ground, a musical that redefined the genre, and even a terrible play that ran for years - or another that closed after one night.".

"This volume, essential for anyone who loves Broadway, includes a full introduction by Ben Brantley, chief theater critic of The Times, his selection of 25 of the influential Broadway plays that defined the twentieth century, and his choice of 100 other, memorable plays - right up through plays currently running on Broadway.".

"The definitive 25 are accompanied by photographs, pull-out stats, and highlights from the opening night review. Each of the unforgettable 125 includes the full, original New York Times review by eminent critics of the day, such as Frank Rich, Clive Barnes, Walter Kerr, Brooks Atkinson, Alexander Woollcott and others. Cast boxes, vintage photographs, and statistics about the productions complete this authoritative volume about timeless Broadway theater."--BOOK JACKET.
