Posted: 3/7/05 at 8:43pmGypsy. My friend and I were going to see it but we didn't get tickets in time. I have the '03 Revival Cast Recording, and it's really good. So now I can 'pretend' I have seen it. lol. From what I hear, however, the music is better anyway.
A most ingenious paradox.

NINE - the original Tommy Tune staging
It hadn't yet opened when I was down in March 1982 and by the time I got back to NYC in August 1984 it had closed.
Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!
I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com

Like a fire deep inside
Something bursting me wide open
Impossible to hide

When someone blunders, we say that he makes a misstep. Is it then not clear that all the ills of mankind, all the tragic misfortunes that fill our history books, all the political blunders, all the failures of the great leaders have arisen merely from a lack of skill in dancing. - Moliere
