i wonder if the mods read all these threads and just laugh at the comings and goings of certain posters.

To return to the original (now invisible) question, wouldn't it typically be the case that the book is written before the music or lyrics? Obviously the songwriters might have some ideas based on the concept for the musical, but the book is usually the launchpad, right?

I could be wrong about this, so feel free to chime in.

Not necessarily. What if someone has some songs written and tries to write a musical revolved around the music?

There's no logical order to how things are done.

Jordan, that time we were talking about the bright sun, I was talking about the moon by mistake. I thought that was what the moon is called.
