Respect: A Musical Journey

Historical and hysterical, Respect: A Musical Journey takes a lively and engaging look at music’s depiction of women as they move from codependence to independence, from “Someone to Watch Over Me” to “I Will Surivive” and beyond. Vanderbilt professor Dr. Dorothy Marcic created the show based on her book, Respect: Women and Popular Music. The musical combines excerpts of 60 popular songs with women’s own stories about finding dreams, lost love, relationship issues, entering the workforce, gaining independence, and more. It’s not just a story worth telling, it’s a must-see and must-hear journey of women through music.
