Relive the Magic of Musical Theatre’s Past
Relive the Magic of Musical Theatre’s Past
At Theatre Arts Press, we are dedicated to preserving the rich heritage of musical theatre by bringing to light the librettos of lost, forgotten, and classic musicals that helped shape the world of musical theatre.
Our Historical Libretto Series is the cornerstone of our mission. While many of these musicals have survived through their vocal scores, the librettos—the heart and soul of these productions—were often lost to time, never published, or scattered in archives. This series allows a whole new generation of theatre enthusiasts, to experience the charm and significance of these historic works.
Join us in rediscovering the magic of these historic musicals, one libretto at a time.
