A game where you pick a Broadway song or line or lyric and say when would be the worst moment to say it.

When your significant other is having the $hitest don't sing "B!tch, B!tch, B!tch"

WHen your at a realtives funeral: Do not sing "No One Mourns the Wicked"

etc. Mine aren't all that great, but you people are creative.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
