I’ve been listening to Sondheim’s musical Sweeney Todd and so now I’m singing “A Little Priest” and “....there was a barber and his wife...” whenever I visit the townies.
Anyone else get certain songs stuck in your head as you play?

I am definitely missing all the normal opportunities we have in my community for performing and watching live theatre. Movie musicals are as good as it gets for the time being! I hadn’t realized WSS was coming back!

Two of my favorite musicals are Moulin Rouge and Camelot (I'm *really* showing my age here) with Richard Harris, Vanessa Redgrave, and Franco Nero. Everyone raved about Nicole Kidman in Moulin Rouge but I personally thought Ewan McGregor carried that movie. Phenomenal actor. My one achieved "bucket list" item was seeing Camelot in stage with Richard Harris, but unfortunately by then he had performed King Arthur so many times, he basically just ran through his lines. Or maybe he was just having an off day - but I was really disappointed.

Ewan McGregor in Moulin Rouge is spectacular! What are your thoughts on the Broadway album?
I'll be sure to check Camelot out. I think a distant cousin would be the musical series "Galavant".

Puerto Rico,
my heart's devotion
let it slip back in the ocean!
Always the hurricanes blowing
and the population growing
and the natives steaming!
I wanna be in America
economy boom in America
Cadillacs zoom in America

Anyone familiar with Fiddler on the roof?
Who day and night
must scramble for a living
feed his wife and children
say his daily prayers
And who as the master of the house
has the final say?
The papa! Tradition!

Who must know the way
to make a proper home
a quiet home, a kosher home
Who must raise the children
and run the home
so papa's free to read the Holy Book
The mama! Tradition!
