This play initiated a new form across classical music and modern Musical, and matched Bernstein’s thought of devoting his life to the popularization of classical music. This play includes funny dialogues of operetta; gorgeous clothes and scenes of Musical; satirized stories and characters. It also simplified the philosophy of the Voltaire’s novels in order to reveal the weakness in human nature through comical and satirical ways. The thesis consists of five chapters. Chapter One gives definitions of Candide from different viewpoints. Chapter Two discusses the background and performances of Candide.
