The purpose of the study is to analyse the formation and development of the musical and to determine its syncretic nature. The research methodology. The method of systematic analysis of the genesis of the musical and its syncretic nature was applied; the axiological method made it possible to generalise the place and role of the musical in the entertainment culture of Ukrainians; the empirical method is based on the study of development trends and the application of the latest practices in domestic musicals. The scientific novelty lies in the general outline of the genesis of the musical, the current state of the Ukrainian musical genre as an integral cultural model, and the generalisation of the syncretic nature of the musical, which goes beyond the established stage canons. Conclusions. The genesis of the musical as a genre is connected with the process of constant syncretism of different genres of stage art, as well as pop music, cinematography, modern technologies, and is in constant adaptation to any changes in society and its system of values. Contemporary directors and producers try to syncretise as many different types and genres of art as possible in a musical, combine circus elements, modern technologies, and social networks to create a unique stage product, to maximise the boundaries of the genre, which actually reveals the syncretic nature of the contemporary musical. Thus, it can be stated that the musical, due to its syncretic nature, reflects a system of values that correlates with the values of the majority of society.
Key words: musical, syncretism, musical theatre, musical director, musical artist, new technologies, commercialisation.
