Those who read this blog want to know the real me. Well the real me loves musicals and this web page--BlueGobo--is like crack. It's an online musical theater video archive and some of these clips are like mannah from heaven--at least for someone who grew up listening to these soundtracks always wondering what the shows looked like onstage. My favorites, so far, are the clips from Guys & Dolls, the original Evita (Patti singing "Buenos Aires"), and--just for kitsch value--Merlin (the little boy in it is Christian Slater). Now I have to get back to my new drug of choice.

With that site I can devote even more of my time to musicals. Hurrah!

Thanks for the clip. I miss variety shows. Today, you'd have a reality show about mounting a variety show.
