In The Same Boat (Curtains)

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....

I love that song too. There was awhile where I had to play it several times a day. "...oh would you forget about he murders!"

Yes, "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.

Are you talking about the final version of the song?

Say 'Bubbi.'" ... "That's it. Exactly as if it were 'Goody.' Now I know you're gonna sing 'Goody' this time, but nevertheless..."

This 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.

I'm pretty sure that you're right, JV- that it was taped for the Lincoln Center Library?

Yes, it was recorded. Karen Ziemba busted out possibly the best performance of "Thataway" of the run on that day.

*sigh* I love this show. And I love her! She was SO nice at stagedoor.
