Irresistable overview of the Broadway musical contextualised as a very Jewish means of expression may not cover any new ground, but does feature some excellent archival performances (more of Zero Mostel's FIDDLER would have been appreciated!) and a fun collection of talking heads to help navigate the material. Good fun, but probably needed the mini-series treatment to be more satisfying.
