Through discussion and film clips, we'll follow musicals which originated in London or Europe and gravitated to New York stages. Composers include Eric Idle, Oliver Bart, ABBA, Elton John, Andrew Lloyd Webber, and others. Shows include "The Boyfriend", "Oliver", "Chess", "Evita", "Les Miz", "Miss Saigon," and "Phantom of the Opera"'
