That's the tagline for The Big Street.

How Henry Fonda managed to pull that off without losing it is beyond me.

Now here's a description of a musical I can wait to see:

Driving in Circles is an autobiographical exploration of childhood sexual abuse and the aftershocks that wrack a survivor, set to a folktronica score.

Oh, my! :o

Another musical that defies description:

Perpetual Sunshine & The Ghost Girls is a through-composed musical centered on the exploitation of workers in the face of a national health crisis. The score combines the aesthetics of 1920's and 2020's music to tell the story of the women who changed the face of American labor laws after being poisoned on the job by the United States Radium Corporation.

What I want to know is...is it really "through-composed" or did they actually mean through-sung like Dreamgirls or Evita?

;)

Alas, the grocery store I use most often, and the most convenient (as it is near the church), is closed indefinitely due to a fire overnight last night. They suspect arson.

Oh, no!

For tonight's Mamma Mia rehearsal, we read through all the dialogue and none of the lyrics.

Since my car is so old (and a headlight is out...even after I bought new bulbs and checked the fuses ::) ), my sister said that I could borrow her car for the drive to Centralia and back.

I also recently also got the French cast recording, so maybe I'll listen to that tomorrow or Thursday.
