Words (and Sometimes Music) by: 5 Musicals

By John Kroll

Lyrics and librettos for five musical theater pieces on divergent subjects. Wild Boy tells the story of the Wild Boy of Aveyron, a feral child discovered in France in 1800. A Perfect Moment adapts the novel The Enchanted April, about a month in Italy that changes the lives of four Englishwomen on vacation. The Town Santa Claus Forgot is a contemporary Christmas musical with a satirical edge. Judas and the Son of God is a revisionist look at events leading up to the Crucifixion. Local Color deals with expatriates in Tangier, Morocco, and is inspired by events in the lives of the writers Paul and Jane Bowles. Essays about the author begin and end the volume.
