From Library Journal:

If you are interested in going into business for yourself, there are start-up manuals for almost any kind of small business. If you have just volunteered (or been volunteered) to direct, produce, or choreograph a school or community musical theater production, you, too, now have a start-up manual. After reading this book, you probably won't become the next Harold Prince, but you will be able to accept the challenge of bringing a musical play or revue to life. The myriad details that make up a musical production are covered in 15 practical chapters that walk you through the entire process. An appendix provides descriptions and licensing information for popular operas, comic operas, musicals, revues, and operettas, and a helpful glossary will let you talk shop with the best of Broadway. Recommended for public and performing arts libraries.?Carolyn M. Mulac, Chicago P.L.
