American musical theater is a theatrical form that combines songs, spoken dialogue, and dance to tell a story, often reflecting the cultural and social dynamics of American life. Originating in the early 20th century, it evolved from vaudeville and operetta influences, leading to iconic works by composers like George Gershwin, Rodgers and Hammerstein, and Stephen Sondheim. Musicals often explore themes of love, struggle, and identity, making them a vibrant and influential aspect of American culture. Notable examples include "West Side Story," "Hamilton," and "The Phantom of the Opera."
