I absolutely adore this song (it's probably my most played from the OBC CD of Curtains), so I was wondering (and hoping!) whether it had ever been videoed for posterity.
IMHO it would be a real shame if not. 
Seen some shows in my time....

Posted: 5/10/08 at 7:54pmI love that song too. There was awhile where I had to play it several times a day. "...oh would you forget about he murders!"

Posted: 5/10/08 at 8:35pmYes, "In the Same Boat", which was written around the same time as Chicago in 1973, is a very charming song and yes, Curtains has been taped for the Lincoln Center Library, at least I think so. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Posted: 5/11/08 at 1:02amThis song was used in an Irish Panto I saw a few months ago. But I can't remember if it was Beauty and the Beast or Snow White.

Posted: 5/11/08 at 11:57amI'm pretty sure that you're right, JV- that it was taped for the Lincoln Center Library?
Grown-ups never understand anything for themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.

Posted: 5/11/08 at 12:00pmYes, it was recorded. Karen Ziemba busted out possibly the best performance of "Thataway" of the run on that day.
