After seeing IN MY LIFE...

Like I said before...my friend said he got a timor and the first thing that popped into my mind was the doctors with the saws.

It was hard to control my laughter.

I thought Al was G-d...


Yes, I'm a Jew...

Yenta will never touch me! It's against the religion.

Yes, but a man and a woman shan't come into contact of one another less it be through cloth.

I don't follow this rule. But she is devout.

Yenta, man, Yenta!

it starts from the middle and works its way out, down, and up

About In My Life - the greatest musical since Dracula!

Maybe they cut the Yenta/Synagogue scenes by the time you saw it...

After the tumor stuff, J.T. decides to change religions and become a Jew. He sings a song with some wacky lyrics like "Perhaps being a Christian is the cause of my trouble/I bet being a Jew would be a utopian bubble."

So he goes to the synagogue and meets a woman named Yenta who gives him all this great information about being Jewish "And even though you are scorned/From the moment you are born/At least you are cleansed and cut/Unlike those dirty muts."

Yenta leaves and Winston comes down and sings another reprise to "Secrets" (Secrets/What is this sacrelidge?/As our hero makes a pilgramage/To the synagogue where he'll lose faith in God"). He then breaks off and says something like "Or perhaps, this will bring him closer to God. I know!..." And he sings a verse of "Perfect for an Opera."

Shame they cut it, I guess. Winston had the best line: "'Cause when you're circumsized/You never are despised/It seems our hero/Would like to bless his...hero"

Oh well!

Dear lord I can not wait to see this musical. I feel bad for anyone involved in it. I am seeing it tommorow!
