The plot of the play consists of a number of related incidents and events that provide a course of action for developing the theme and exploring the characters.

Generally, the producer is only indirectly involved with the artistic interpretation and performance of the play. He usually selects a' director whOse interpretative concept agrees with hisown. He hires designers whose visua,1 concepts represent an extension of the directorial conceptUnless he is obliged to exercise his prerogative to take issue with concepts and interpretations. or unless there is a need for him to reconcile differences in artistic concept, the producer reains in the background, kvping'a watchful eke on financial expenditus and die artistwidevelopment of the play:

Musical Plays . Musicalplays standas theprincipal contribution of the United States to world theater. haling their roots in popular entertainment formsthe minstrel show, saudeville, light operetta, and revue. In 1929 Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein created Show Boat, a musical play based on Edna Ferber's novel, that was an artistic entity, haying a logical story line and incorporating music, dance, and comedy as integral parts of the stage actionThis approach or form offered great creative possibilitiesIn 1943 Richard Rodgers and Oscar Ham- merstein collaborated on Oklahoma, based on Lynn Riggs' play Green Grow the Lilacs, which was a landmark development of a distinctly American art form The popularity of the musical has grown and the form gained world-wide acceptanceThe success of the musical play has resulted in a broadening of its subject matter beyond an emphasis solely on comedyToday. many musicals treatthe most serious and ificant of social subjects, and in the United States tl:ey represent the most popular and financially successful of all theater forms. The producer of the musical play may choose from a wide variety of musical playsEach playis unique, not only in its subject matter, but also in the was it emphasizes and blends the various ele- mentsOne play will require certain vocal qualities, another will emphasize dance, while a third will depend on specific scenic devices. One musical play will require but a minimum number of people perhaps only six or sesenwhile another would be meaningless without a cast of ten and a chorus of thirty to fif Depending on the play, the producer may have tfie opportunityifo utilize any of a variety of musical arrangementsfrom piano and percussion, rock group, or small pit orchestra, to an orchestra of symphony siteBecause of the variety of production possibilities, the producer must contact the agency or firm in control of performance rights and determine the limitations of the production before royalty and rental fees an be established.
