What do you think of the term “showtune” to describe songs from musical theatre? 9 comments
It’s an inappropriate and derogatory term.
It’s a little too casual.
It applies well to some theatre songs but not for others.
It's perfectly fine.
It’s so derogatory that we’re taking back the word and reclaiming it! Those who love musicals can freely refer to them as showtunes, but those who don’t know Jerry Herman from Stephen Sondheim better not!
