Something For The Boys by John M Clum

An entertaining history of musical comedy that examines the obsession of many gay men with musical theatre. Presents a guided tour through the history of musical comedy in the UK and USA, along the way shining a spotlight on the allure of the diva,; the lives of Noel Coward, Cole Porter and Lorenz Hart; the homophobia of Rogers and Hammerstein; the mixed musical messages of Stephen Sondheim; and the first brassy notes of the overture to 'Gypsy'. Of course, you don't have to be a drag queen to find love with a high C.
