There is no bookplate or signature of a previous owner. Not a remainder or library book. The wraps are in near fine condition (slight curling of upper righthand corner). 9 x 6, 223 pages, 14 ounces XX [From the back cover] In the early 1980s, Walt Disney Productions was struggling, largely bolstered by the success of its theme parks. Within fifteen years, however, it was one of the most powerful entertainment conglomerates in the world. Drawing from archival research, interviews, and textual analysis, Peter C. Kunze examines how the hiring of theatrically trained talent into managerial and production positions reorganized the lagging animation division and revitalized its output. By Aladdin, it was clear that animation - not live-action - was the center of a veritable renaissance at Disney and the animated musicals driving this revival laid the groundwork for the company's growth into Broadway theatrical production. The Disney Renaissance not only reinvigorated the Walt Disney Company, but both reflected and influenced changes in Broadway and Hollywood more broadly. XX "Peter Kunze's STAGING A COMEBACK brings a fresh perspective to the Disney 'renaissance' of the 1980s and 90s. He examines these films' historical connection to the theatricality, anthropomorphic performance, and mediated liveness of classic animation. The book is also noteworthy for the author's innovative research methods, in light of the studio's reluctance to open up to independent scholarship. Kunze shows that if you can't enter the castle over the moat, you can storm it by way of the ramparts (DONALD CRAFTON, AUTHOR OF SHADOW OF A MOUSE: PERFORMANCE, BELIEF, AND WORLD-MAKING IN ANIMATION). XX STAGING A COMEBACK tells a fascinating, complex story of corporate ambition, artistic vision, and theatrical collaboration. Kunze brilliantly reveals how the interdependence of theatre and animation, New York City and theme parks, Hollywood producers and Broadway musical theatre artists enabled Disney's breathtaking success (STACY WOLF, AUTHOR OF BEYOND BROADWAY: THE PLEASURE AND PROMISE OF MUSICAL THEATRE ACROSS AMERICA). XX Peter C. Kunze is an assistant professor of communication at Tulane University. He is editor or coeditor of several books, including The Films of Wes Anderson: Critical Essays on an Indiewood Icon, American-Australian Cinema: Transnational Connections, and Taking a Stand: Contemporary US Stand-Up Comedians as Public Intellectuals.…
