Abstract

Musical films do not evolve in parallel with the theatrical musicals on Broadway. It creates a gap of about a decade between the musicals on Broadway and those produced in Hollywood. In 2021 Lin-Manuel Miranda, director of the film Tick, Tick... Boom! revives Jonathan Larson, heir to the influences of the musicals of Richard Rodgers & Oscar Hammerstein II, and Stephen Sondheim
