Gotta Watch Out For Directors.

Todd: The History Of The World, My Love -- Lovett: Save A Lot Of Graves, Do A Lot Of Relatives Favors! Todd: Is Those Below Serving Those Up Above! Lovett: Ev'rybody Shaves, So There Should Be Plenty Of Flavors! Todd: How Gratifying For Once To Know Both: That Those Above Will Serve Those Down Below!

Everyone Tells Tiny Lies, What's Important Really Is The Size.

You Have Two Kinds Of Shows On Broadway - Revivals And The Same Kind Of Musicals Over And Over Again, All Spectacles. You Get Your Tickets For 'the Lion King' A Year In Advance, And Essentially A Family Comes As If To A Picnic, And They Pass On To Their Children The Idea That That's What The Theater Is - A Spectacular Musical You See Once A Year, A Stage Version Of A Movie. It Has Nothing To Do With Theater At All. It Has To Do With Seeing What Is Familiar. We Live In A Recycled Culture.

If You're Dealing With A Musical In Which You're Trying To Tell A Story, It's Got To Sound Like Speech. At The Same Time It's Got To Be A Song.

Nice Is Different Than Good.
