Jump into the Showboat: U.S. Culture in the 20th Century and Its Representation in Musicals
The musical has been considered an "American cultural form" and a genre that, for about a century, reflected
both the mentality and the cultural economy in the United States. In this lecture, we will combine an overview of
the cultural and social history of the U.S. with the interpretation of some landmark musicals that were adapted to
film. We will discuss how central cultural themes have been circulated through musicals, locating selected
musicals in American history with regard to the time of their production and the time depicted in the musical.
Selected scenes from a wide range of musicals will be embedded in the political and cultural discourses of the
time, from Show Boat (film 1936/musical 1927) and Porgy and Bess (1959/1935), Cabin in the Sky (1940),
South Pacific (1949) through the musicals of the 1960s and '70s (Westside Story 1957/1961; Jesus Christ
Superstar 1973; Hair 1979) to recent productions such as The Producer (2001) and Wicked (2008).
