I just watched broadway.com's opening night video of Chita Rivera: The Dancer's Life, and is it me, or does "Dancing on the Kitchen Table" sound close to "Amazing Mayzie?"

Not at all!! Same composer/lyricist or not!

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
