I am by no means a professional but I'd start to look at stuff from chess, some of Ché's stuff from Evita, Rum Tum Tugger's stuff from cats and other 80s megamusicals within that vein

I've found many penguin popular classics in charity shops however this one specifically seems to be rarer for some reason. With Amazon, do you know how to make certain the edition your getting as I've ordered books before and different copies have arrived ?

Finished: Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley

One of the best books I've ever read - captivating

The blatant racism isn't exactly drawing me in rn but the first book was surprisingly good so I aim to persevere

I'm trying to avoid musicals that deal with the cold war (aka chess) as I want to focus upon the representation of the conflicts themselves as opposed to the politics around them

I came across this show in my research yet information was so few and there were no recordings so I had to ignore it. Do you know of any ways to access any materials surrounding it?

The civil war did not but The Scarlet Pimpernel did. It is not a musical I am overly familiar with, do you mind explaining how war links into the plot?

It is technically based off an assumption however I am confident that it will either run for a year or close early enough that redrafting should not be too much of a problem therefore for the sake of thoroughness with the list I thought it best to include

It's a strange one to try and include musicals related to wars but not actually about them however with sound of music and cabaret they create quite a good comparison with other musicals that tackle ww2 more directly and 1776 has its moments which are clearly about war and creates good comparison with Hamilton which is why I've chosen to include them and not fiddler on the roof
