Hello
How are we today?
A little quiet?
I'm feeling a little blue myself
You know
A little anxious for no particular reason
A little sad that I should feel anxious in this age
You know, a little self-conscious anxiety
Resulting in non-specific sadness
A state that I call "blue"
Anyway
Whenever I'm feeling this way -
Blue -
I like to listen to my music
So I was going through my box of records this morning
Yes, records
And what did I find but one of my favorite shows
Gable and Stein's "The Drowsy Chaperone"!
Remember?
Music by Julie Gable, Lyrics by Sidney Stein
Let me read to you what it says on the back of the album
It says, "Mixups, mayhem, and a gay wedding!"
Well- of course, the phrase "gay wedding"
Has a different meaning now, but
But back then, it just meant "fun"
And that's just what this show is
Fun
Now
Let's visualize!
Imagine, if you will
It's November 1928
You've just arrived at the doors of the Belasco Theater in New York
It's very cold
And a heavy grey sleet is falling from the sky
But you don't care
Because you're going to see a Broadway show!
Listen!
