Book recommendations for writing musicals

Does any one have any recommendations for books or YT for writing musicals? May have dug myself a hole when I had a discussion with a couple of actors on a short I wrote that I would write a short musical, two songs, 10 mins short. I think I've bitten off more than I can chew.... Help!

Don't overwhelm yourself, Greg. I'm not on Stage 32 much, but when I logged in your comment was right up in the feed :D

I saw a hip hop version of 'Othello' by the Q Brothers (they are based in Chicago) at Shakespeare's Globe many years ago. While that may not necessarily help with your question, it was brilliant, possibly music genre choice.

The creatives behind 'Anna and the Apocalypse' might have some content kicking about on the internet.

Thanks, I'll look into in.
