For the layman, it was the first time in years that a Broadway musical reached the greater cultural conversation. Musical theatre had drifted from the zeitgeist after decades of leading the entertainment industry, but here it was back and in charge. For the theatre aficionados, it was the first Broadway musical to run longer than a decade.

Actors went to extreme lengths to inhabit the complicated psyche of a character, sometimes making audiences deeply uncomfortable.
