"Just an aside... It has always intrigued me that, as Madame Grushinskaya explained thru her dialog, guests at the hotel are speaking in their native tongues, yet we - the audience - are hearing it all in English. I cannot think of another show that makes a point to tell the audience that the characters are all speaking "foreign" [to us] languages.
Weird concept.. but it works well!!

Great point--Light in the Piazza does this too, albeit in a different manner--that's all I can think of.
