Broadway Musical Trivia Book

The book covers a nice variety of topics and is organized chronologically and by genre. We really enjoyed quizzing each other with the questions in each chapter. The only slightly disappointing thing was that the answers to the quizzes were given in bulk at the end of each chapter. So, if you are going to do it like a quiz, you have to write down your answers on a sheet of paper. We would have preferred to do the questions one-by one, with each question being followed immediately by its answer. On the whole though, an entertaining and enjoyable book!

Sadly, the answers don’t correspond. It’s extremely difficult to follow the answers. So many incomplete answers. Maybe it’s in the printing? So disappointing. Because otherwise it has great questions!

I purchased 2 copies of this book, with the intention of giving one as a gift. I brought one copy with me to review while waiting for my husband’s surgery-it’s a great book.However, in many of the chapters, there are 23 answers, but only 20 questions. Also, many of the answers are incomplete, or don’t match up with the questions. I may have to return these books.

This is certainly not a dry, boring history of musicals! Rather, it's a fun and interesting book that will test your knowledge and give you behind-the-scenes info on musical theater.I especially liked the "Did you know..." section at the end of each chapter. For example, who knew that the Tony Awards were named after...well, you'll just have to read it!You'll smile as you read because each chapter will spark a happy memory. You might even break into song! And, that's not such a bad thing.

This book, although fun, needs some major proofreading.
