The Two Most Glorious Words in the English Language

That's right, Peggy Sawyer.

I'm talking 'bout Musical Comedy.

So now you know what show I saw last night.

And the coolest thing? I walked from work to the theatre! Took a taxi home, though.

I have to say, I really love the sap Broadway schmaltz part of "42nd Street." Tears come to my eyes during Julian's big speech leading into "Lullaby of Broadway." And I was the first person who clapped for the line... the LINE, mind you, "Sawyer, you're going to go out there a youngster, but you've got to come back here a STAR!"

God, I'm a sap. But at least I have fun watching cute boys tap dance their asses off.

The funniest moment of the show, though?

Billy Elder did an entire scene, dancing and all, with his pants unzipped. I couldn't help but laugh, along with many others who could see what was going on. A few people didn't get the joke and didn't understand why I was laughing. But I couldn't stop!
