Fun Questions for Musical Theatre Junkies

My prof. knows entirely too much about musical theatre and gave us an extra credit assignment with really difficult questions on it. We're allowed to use any source in the world, except for him. Can you answer any of these? Any help would be greatly appreciated... I've already figured out most of the other things but I'm stuck on these. Thanks :)

What shows do these lyrics come from?
1. "It's about 'take your breath away... can't believe your eyes'..."

2. "Finding it's the mud that makes the roses grow..."

Also... who (actor/actress) appeared as all 3 of these roles on Bway in the original OR revival cast?

1. A ghost
A governess
A suffragette

2. A choirmaster
A gold-miner in Alaska
A stowaway on a cruise ship

3. A vaudevillian agent
A suicidal advertising executive
An employee in a perfumery

4. A nightclub singer and dancer
An answering service employee
A mother-of-the-bride

5. A 1955 motorcyclist
A boy band member
A roller-skating artist

6. A train car
A typist/aspiring actress
A filmaker's mistress

Plus... What shows fit EXACTLY the spacing/punctuation here:
example [_ _ _ _ _ _ space _ _ space _ _ _ _] = [title of show]

1. _ _ _ _ space _ _ space _ _ space _ _. space _ _ _ _ _

2. _ _ _ _ _ _ space _ _ _'_ space _ _ _ _

for the who played which roles:

1) Rebecca Luker
3) Boyd Gaines
4) Faith Prince
6) Jane Krakowski

and the fill in the blanks one hurts my eyes too much.

1. Rebecca Luker

6. Jane Krakowski

Wow! Thanks! Does anyone have a clue on the lyrics? I've been trying to search them but haven't had much luck...

Thank you!

roseaddams, I'm impressed!!! Have you thought about a career on Wheel of Fortune?

Mummy, am I having fun yet?

EDIT: wait, why 'Mary Poppins'? Mrs Banks isn't a suffragette in the stage version. O_o

For Cheyenne, I'm pretty sure it's 'All Shook Up' first. Possibly 'Altar Boys' second, but that wasn't Broadway.

I think Altar Boyz works... I'lll check more into Mary Poppins...

Some of these seem so obvious now that you say them... but I was so lost on them!

The Cheyenne one was definitely All Shook Up, Altar Boys, and Xanadu.

I had a prof that did something like this once- only with shakespeare, and it was a graded final.

I'm glad this is extra credit and not a final! I'm so close... but I haven't been able to find anyone that knows where those lyrics come from. It's tough stuff.

one more set of lyrics, anyone know what they're from?

"a quart and pint served up just right will cure you right away"

still looking for:

"It's about 'take your breath way... can't believe your eyes'"

Thanks!

Yup. Found that one. Just stuck on those last two lyrics...
I have no idea how my prof. thinks up this stuff.
