Not Getting Married Today from Company! Especially with Matt Doyle! I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so hard in my freaking life than during that number!


The idea is to work and to experiment. Some things will be creatively successful, some things will succeed at the box office, and some things will only - which is the biggest only - teach you things that see the future. And they're probably as valuable as any of your successes. -Harold Prince

AS WE STUMBLE ALONG - Drowsy Chaperone

Within the context of the show “Don’t Lose Ur Head” from Six is quite funny. Even with the milennial/gen z lingo my middle aged parents were laughing their asses off, especially at the climax where Boleyn says “I guess he just really liked my head?” and uses the microphone to mime you what

#35

"Loud" from Matilda


==> this board is a nest of vipers <==

Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend Carol Channing

There Is Nothing Like a Dame South Pacific

No Way to Stop It Nearly lost gem from Sound of Music
A crazy planet full of crazy people
Is somersaulting all around the sky
And everytime it turns another somersault
Another day goes by


Sing For Your Supper The Boys From Syracuse
Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered. Pal Joey

Matchmaker

You heard he has a temper.
He'll beat you every night,
But only when he's sober,
So you'll alright. Fiddler on the Roof

What's Gonna Happen TOOTSIE

#41

I know I'm going to sound like a crazy person, but in attending hundreds of Broadway shows over decades, I've never laughed as hard as I did at Gettin' the Band Back Together. The songs don't stand alone as much as some from, say, Spamalot, but I laughed my butt off at "Hava Nagila," "Second Chances," "Bart's Confession," and all of the Mouthfeel moments, particularly "Best Band in the World."
