In the six-week course “For the Love of Music” we talk about movie and Broadway musicals.
Several of the musicals we explore have a historical context.
When we talk about “Hairspray,” which is set in 1962 Baltimore, Maryland, we look at a few civil rights icons, including Ruby Bridges, “the first African-American child to desegregate the all-white William Frantz Elementary School in Louisiana during the New Orleans school desegregation crisis in 1960.” (Wikipedia)
