100% I'm a Sondheim nut.

On a side note to Princess, GOOD FOR YOU! There's a lot of people out there who can't admit or even say the words "I'm still learning."

I agree with many of the others that knowing about these shows will serve you well later. They regularly get revived across the nation, and many of the songs are considered standards and are sung in cabarets and reviews. Give "A Little Night Music" a try; it's sexy and funny, and has a lot more than "Send In the Clowns" in the score.

I usually do so bad on these quizes (my score is usually 4...out of the couple of times I decided to even participate); but this time I got a 7! That's good for me. lol

Princess, taking a quiz about shows from before your time is what will make it challenging an exciting, and force you to learn something new. re: New Quiz: Simple Sondhe
Plus, Company, Follies, and Anyone can Whistle (at least he concert version) were all done (well, revived) in the 1990's...in fact Follies was in the 2000's. I'm not sure about A Little Night Music or Merrily we Roll Along, but still...that's only 2 shows.

Also, Princess, stay away from THE SONDHEIM REVIEW.
It will put you off him forever.

Son, I never played Yahtzee as a kid. I was always a Clue/Risk fan.

Then when I did band in high school, us crazy folk would stay up all night playing Strip-Risk. Oh, the vindication when I gained Europe....

I've done well 2 weeks in a row. I guess I knew more about Sondheim than I realized.

"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!" Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

Dolly, this was "SIMPLE" Sondheim.

It seems you must be given a special private quiz.

Give me two Broadway musical/theatre topics which you believe you know like the back of your hand, with the exception of The World's Happiest Musical, of course. Let me see what I might create to challenge you.
