Show Boat

This neglected gem is the closest rendering we have to what the authors originally intended to communicate in one of the most important musicals of the twentieth century.

It preserves performances by several of the original cast members, including the great Paul Robeson and Helen Morgan, singing their most famous signature tunes.

The American Musical Theater came of age with this show, which depicts domestic abuse, alcoholism & racial oppression and contains one of the most glorious musical scores ever written for any medium.

It's sad that this landmark production has not been remastered for DVD.
