Musical theatre can be a great tool for teachers as it can help teach a variety of skills and provide information. However‚ musical theatre is often ignored in the classroom. This is not only a fault of people with distaste for theatre‚ but also lovers of theatre. As David Savran says‚ “And even for many devotees of the so-called straight theatre‚ musical theatre remains (at best) a guilty pleasure-a little too gay‚ too popular‚ too Jewish‚ and too much damned fun” (216). This blockage between
