I started listening to A Beautiful Noise. It's OK, but not great. Kind of like a theme park musical tribute or a Vegas show. But the songs themselves are wonderful and make me long to hear the originals again.

That's the thing about jukebox musicals.  Sometimes (not always, though), the songs are so different that I can't let go of the originals and accept them as a new score to a show.

I'm kinda hoping the new WOKE lyrics for songs in THE MUSIC MAN do not become the ones used for productions and schools and community theatres......

Agreed!!

I wonder if they'll at least be made available in addition to the originals.

Well, I'm done with my Dairy Queen dinner, and am now off to my sister's from some freshly baked (if not made) cookies. :)

I do believe I have finished writing book 23. I'm sure there'll be futzing and finessing to do, but I think I got the ending just the way I wanted it and frankly I'm all in and a wreck at the moment so I think I'll just go out and get some donuts to celebrate.

There's a (ootlegbay) recording of the workshop of Wise Guys with Nathan Lane and Victor Garber.  That version of the show was never officially recorded.  Some people do have a copy of that. ::)
