I think that Ziegfeld was certainly a great man for inventing musical theater. The only think that I really don;t agree with is that the women were most;y used as objects, and props. They should, in my perspective, have been treated like actual actresses, because that's what they were.

Some say that Ziegfeld glorified the American woman. Others say he simply used them as props, statues to beautify the stage. Their costumes were extravagant, full of colour and glitter, sparkles and feathers. The hats were so big and heavy that the girls had to learn a specific walk just to balance them! They called this the Ziegfeld Walk.

Musical theater is a form of theatrical performance that combines songs, spoken dialogue, acting, and dance. The story and emotional content of a musical – humor, pathos, love, anger – are communicated through the words, music, movement and technical aspects of the entertainment as an integrated whole. Although musical theater overlaps with other theatrical forms like opera and dance, it may be distinguished by the equal importance given to the music as compared with the dialogue, movement and other elements. Since the early 20th century, musical theater stage works have generally been called, simply, musicals.
