	abstract = {The five essays in this chapter survey well-known and lesser-known cities around the world where musical theatre is produced: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; New York City, USA; London, UK; Lagos, Nigeria; and Manila, the Philippines. Each one reflects on different historical moments, from the nineteenth century through to the twenty first century, and on particular practitioners who contributed a range of innovations to musical theatre. Alex B{\'a}due considers the localization and assimilation processes that have combined European, US American, and Brazilian cultures in Rio de Janeiro{\textquoteright}s musical theatre practice. Jennifer C. H. J. Wilson uses impresario Tony Pastor{\textquoteright}s career to explore how musical theatre in nineteenth-century New York City circulated and responded to the city{\textquoteright}s working-class immigrant population. Laura Milburn similarly takes an impresario, producer Charles B. Cochran, and unpacks his collaborative work in twentieth-century London with both British and American songwriters. Leesi Patrick privileges a third producer, Bolanle Austen-Peters, and highlights BAP{\textquoteright}s pioneering work in developing musical theatre as a viable entertainment industry in Lagos. Sir Anril P. Tiatco examines musical theatre entanglements in Manila to better understand the processes of returning, rewriting, and repeating that define its industry.},
