 * directors and choreographers
 * producers
 * performers
 * genres (rock musical, Edwardian musicals, etc.)

Articles pertaining to:
 * Exclusions
 * theatres, ie venues - these form part of the WikiProject Theatre
 * musical films – these are covered by the very large and active WP:FILM project.
 * operettas - these form part of the WikiProject Opera, although if it is a grey area, there is nothing wrong with categorizing the work in both places. Some of the English-language operettas, however, have been categorized as musicals, such as some of those by Herbert, Lehar, Friml and Romberg.
