I fell like I'm the only one left who is not under 19. Is there anyone else out there?

Older, senile hags this way please..... lets all gather under here...... we shall leave the children to play in the sandbox...
I was 19 in 1970. The year COMPANY opened on Broadway.
I come bearing memories of treasures from the golden age that came before MAMA MIA and MILLIE.

OMG! They had shjows BEFORE Mamma Mia and Millie??? I thought Oklahoma! amnd The Black Crook were just fantasies made up by power hungry men who wanted to fool the masses into following their opinions and how they thought life should be lived...
**wink wink**
I was in diapers, but I later heard from Mama that MY AMERICAN COUSIN was damned good.

yes.. my great great great great great grandmother was just turning 100 when THAT show opened.. I heard it was real bang. People were just dying in the boxes at that one.
Now people die simply trying to leave, being trampled by the standing ovations. Or after assault by rabid ushers.
In MY day, only Lunt and Fontaine's last performance -- EVER -- provoked a standing O.
Thank you! :)

I was born the year that the original Cabaret won the Tony for Best Musical. Know what year that is?
I was born less than a month before The Crucible opened.

I'm not. I'm in the mid-thirties category. Do we have categories?
I *remember* being under 19. If there was a Broadway show on in the year I was born, they were probably using gas lights.

I was born the year Cats opened on Broadway... Are there more 20-somethings on this board? I've only noticed a few. Anybody in college? I got to UCLA and am graduating this year! Updated On: 12/21/03 at 11:29 PM
