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

Ways to annoy people:
Arrive at a meeting late, say you're sorry, but you didn't have time for lunch, and you're going to be nibbling during the meeting. Then eat raw potatoes.
Ask people what gender they are,or
Disagree strongly with everything anybody says:)

Adam Pascal not having a job at the moment is also a crime
Taboo closing before I got to see it 
Columbus writing the screenplay for the Rent movie could also count as a musical theatre crime
actually making a movie out of rent period will probably end up being a crime (In my opinion anyway)

Understudies, standbys, swings, chorus members and anyone behind the scenes never getting enough credit for a production.
Rebecca Luker never winning a tony for "Showboat" or "The Music Man".

Michael Hayden and Sally Murphy not being nominated for the CAROUSEL revival.
Noth that Sally could have beaten Domnna Murphy in PASSION, but they nominated Susan Wood from the GREASE revival, for God's sake!
