Britain's most articulate singer–songwriter remains a complex individual whose lyrics are concerned with realism, opinion, waspish wit, irony, asexuality, melancholy and love. In this candid biography, Morrissey's friends and members of his entourage speak frankly to David Bret to reveal a fascinating portrait of the iconic star. Bret's fully up-to-date biography is packed with revelations; accusations of racism and fascism; confessions of physical abuse; High Court royalty battles and the public shaming; the attack on Cliff Richard; renegade fans' attempts to sabotage his career. Placed upon a pedestal and worshipped; alternately derided and attacked by detractors, Morrissey is perhaps the only English entertainer to have successfully created hisown culture, a personal world filled with foibles, likes and dislikes, and above all unsuppressable opinion; a world which David Bret describes with vivid candour that provides a comprehensive insight into the singer-songwriter's life and music as well as an ideal introduction for new fans of his work. The book includes a full discography, numerous original photos and a comprehensive bibliography.

On March 31, 1943, the musical Oklahoma! premiered and the modern era of the Broadway musical was born. Since that time, the theatres of Broadway have staged hundreds of musicals--some more noteworthy than others, but all in their own way a part of American theatre history. With more than 750 entries, this comprehensive reference work provides information on every musical produced on Broadway since Oklahoma's 1943 debut. Each entry begins with a brief synopsis of the show, followed by a three-part history: first, the pre-Broadway story of the show, including out-of-town try-outs and Broadway previews; next, the Broadway run itself, with dates, theatres, and cast and crew, including replacements, chorus and understudies, songs, gossip, and notes on reviews and awards; and finally, post-Broadway information with a detailed list of later notable productions, along with important reviews and awards.
