Sung-through

Sung-through (also through-sung) refers to a musical or opera with little or no spoken dialogue. Conversations, speeches and musings are communicated musically though a combination of recitative, aria and arioso. A few examples of sung-through musicals would be: "Rent", "The Phantom of the Opera", "Les Misérables", "Evita", "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat", and "Miss Saigon".
