I saw the revival in NY and have seen it on tour - and I have opinions about the dream ballet...BUT, my question is actually about the moment just prior to the dance:

What lines do the cast recite together before the dream ballet?  I know they are instructions for using the Elixir of Egypt, but I can't remember the exact lines and I don't think they are from elsewhere in the script.  All I can think of is the line in Nunsense when Rev. Mother finds the bottle of poppers: "Remove lid, aroma will develop." 

I think it was a clever way to begin the second act, regardless of what I thought of the ballet itself.

Who the hell even knows why most things in this production happened.

No idea about what lines they recite together, but this was the only bad part of Fish's Oklahoma
