Musical theatre blends acting, singing, and dance into one live show. A performance opens as the orchestra plays the overture, then the curtain rises on the cast, from leads to the full ensemble. An understudy waits in the wings ready to step in. The audience reads the playbill, returns after intermission, and may demand an encore at the end. A matinee is the afternoon show, and the marquee outside carries the title in lights. This word puzzle gathers eleven of them.
