| Abstract: | The text reviews three books focused on musical theater scholarship. The first examines the professional lives and collaborations of songwriters Maltby and Shire over sixty-five years, highlighting their shows, films, and songs through interviews and analyses. The second, *The Oxford Handbook of the Disney Musical*, offers a comprehensive, multidisciplinary study of Disney musicals spanning roughly a century, addressing topics from early animated shorts to Disney’s impact on Broadway, while engaging with cultural, legal, and technological issues. The third, *Women Writing Musicals: The Legacy That the History Books Left Out* by Jennifer Ashley Tepper, provides an encyclopedic, chronological account of over three hundred female musical theater writers from the eighteenth century to the 2010s, filling gaps left by previous scholarship and emphasizing the contributions of often overlooked women in the field.
