War Paint - not sure what I was watching.  Are these really the best numbers from these shows?  Or the most interesting?

I think that song is either the only, or one of the only times that Patti and Christine sing together...I think I'd read that, but I could be wrong.

The authors of the plays have a moment to tell what their plays are about.  It's kind of interesting, but they certainly don't get the same amount of time as the musical numbers.

The Great Comet.  Immersive.  I'm done.  And while we've seen numbers like that in many, many musicals, this one had no form or discipline or choreography that builds.  Then again, we don't have Ron Field, Bob Fosse, Gower Champion, Michael Bennett, Michael Kidd, Onna White, Jerome Robbins, Peter Gennaro or Tommy Tune.

Bandstand - best choreography.  See the Tony Broadcast of the Sing, Sing, Sing number from Fosse or the Over Here number to see how this is really done by choreographers who know how to do this.  The Bandstand number?  No build, no art, no nothing.  And everyone raves about it.  Not me.
