A Deep Dive Into the Meaning of Well Known Broadway Songs.
Popular Broadway song lyrics from the past sometimes contain topical and historical references about people, places, and events that were well-known in their day, but that today require context and definition. As an example, this lecture will explore a well-known song from a 1934 Cole Porter show, and you probably will be surprised to learn the history behind many of its references.
