Just a quick question....
The incidental music for the earlier scenes (that bouncy tune as Robbie's running down the stairs before Rosie gives him the bed). Is that a tune from the show or was it just created as an incidental?

Hmm... if I remember correctly, it's a little reprise of "Right on Time," which was a song that Julia sang instead of "Someday" at the beginning of the show. Or something to that extent. Is that what you're thinking of?
That melody is lovely, yes it sounds a little bit like "Right on Time"

It's def. "Right On Time", well 4 lines or so. It's been a while since I saw the show, but after they cut "Right On Time" I noticed Robbie still sings a few lines during that scene. Its awkward, because they cut "Right On Time", but they reprise it and confuse people. Before they cut the song, "Right On Time" was the constant tune played throughout the performance. I'll NEVER understand why they took it out. They could have kept "Someday", just placed it elsewhere in the show.
I personally like Right On TIme way more than I like SOmeday.

It doesn't really confuse people.
I thought the tune was reminiscent of Move That Thang, so that's what I figured it was.
