Shen Curriculum for Musical Theater celebrates its 10th year

YaleNews: When Theodore P. Shen ’66 decided to help launch the Shen Curriculum for Musical Theater a decade ago, he wanted “to elevate American musical theater as an integral part of liberal arts education at Yale.”

While the curriculum began as an extracurricular activity, it has evolved into an interdisciplinary course of study that examines American musical theater as an indigenous American art form, influenced by changing cultural, socio-economic, and musical tastes and styles.
