Abstract
Beginning in the mid-1980s, musicals with Gershwin scores returned to Broadway for the first time in half a century. Four "new" Gershwin musicals – widely distributed across almost a quarter century with none created or produced by the same individuals or organizations – put Gershwin songs (and sometimes his concert music) into brand new or greatly revised narratives. These shows effectively sidestepped the prohibitive commercial challenge of reviving Gershwin's musical comedies and operettas of the 1920s and 1930s in their original form. No other songwriter of Gershwin's era has enjoyed a similar pattern of book-show reinvention on the late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century Broadway stage.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
