Hi! 

Has anybody listened to any Broadway-related audiobooks lately? I zipped through Razzle Dazzle by Michael Riedel and The Secret Life of the American Musical by Jack Viertel. Both were great and I was hoping to listen to more, but wanted to get your recommendations first.

TheSassySam: I've listened to many including the two you mentioned ( Razzle Dazzle by Michael Riedel and The Secret Life of the American Musical). I agree that the Patti Lupone audio book is awesome. I also really enjoyed:

Tradition!: the story of Fiddler on the Roof
Master of Ceremonies: Joel Grey's memoir
Maggie Smith by Michael Coveney
Act One by Moss Hart
The Untold Stories of Broadway
Hello, Gorgeous
Fosse by Sam Wasson
I Got the Show Right Here
And Furthermore by Judi Dench
Home by Julie Andrews
A Little Bit Wicked by Kristen Chenoweth
Ghost Light by Frank Rich

Thank you for the great list! It looks like I already purchased Untold Stories (for some reason, I thought it was the Seth Rudetsky novel.)

It's not a book about Broadway, but Kelli O'Hara and Steve Pasquale did the audio book for Bridges of Madison County!
