Musicals

Extracted from the Wikipedia article Musical theatre.

Musicals are performed around the world. They may be presented in large venues, such as big-budget Broadway or West End productions in New York City or London. Alternatively, musicals may be staged in smaller venues, such as off-Broadway, off West End, regional theatre, fringe theatre or community theatre productions, or on tour. Musicals are often presented by amateur and school groups in churches, schools and other performance spaces. In addition to the United States and Britain, there are vibrant musical theatre scenes in continental Europe, Scandinavia, Asia, Australasia, Canada and Latin America.
