Show Boat Theater Costume Rentals

Availability: In Stock

Show Boat is a 1927 musical in two acts, with music by Jerome Kern and book and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II. Based on Edna Ferber?s bestselling novel of the same name, the musical follows the lives of the performers, stagehands, and dock workers on the Cotton Blossom, a Mississippi River show boat, over forty years, from 1887 to 1927. Its themes include racial prejudice and tragic, enduring love. The musical contributed such classic songs as ?Ol? Man River?, ?Make Believe?, and ?Can?t Help Lovin? Dat Man?. The arrival of Show Boat on Broadway was a watershed moment in the history of American musicals. Compared to the trivial and unrealistic operettas, light musical comedies, and ?Follies?-type musical revues that defined Broadway in the 1890s and early 20th century, Show Boat ?was a radical departure in musical storytelling, marrying spectacle with seriousness? ? wikipedia
