	Musical theatre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Musicals today are typically presented in two acts, with one intermission fifteen to twenty minutes in length, and the first act is almost always somewhat longer than the second act.
		Hundreds of musical comedies were staged on Broadway in the 1890s and early 1900s comprising music written in New York's Tin Pan Alley involving composers such as Gus Edwards, John J McNally, John Walter Bratton and George M. Cohan.
		The musicals of the Roaring Twenties, borrowing from vaudeville, music hall and other such entertainments, tended to ignore plot in favor of emphasizing star actors and actresses, big dance routines, and popular songs (throughout the first half of the twentieth century, popular music was dominated by theater writers).

		A musical biography of an imaginary song-writer, Moony Shapiro, written for six performers, Norman's score was a brilliant string of pastiches of song styles through the century, from Hollywood musicals to pop through war-time jollifications a la Cicely Courtneidge.
