I'd really recommend doing some research on Follies and why those "revue songs" as you call them are there. And why the Loveland sequence happens.
And people don't go to Showtunes cause they don't advertise well at all and try to get people to come at the last minute.
The real shame is we have Broadway vets in Seattle and they couldn't get them to do a 2 show gig.
The fact that Patti Cohenour didn't play Sally is tragic.
