is there someone who can explain the appeal of the musical?  I don't really get it.  Of course, I have enjoyed a bunch of operas, so maybe I am not really giving musicals a chance.

There are some emotions best expressed through song/music?

Oh, sure.  I think thats why I like opera.  It just has a power or an oomph to it.

*sigh*  just when we having a serious conversation.  oh well.  : (

Just because some folks are talking recipes, doesn't mean you have to change the subject as well.

And while we are on the subject of spaghetti plays and musicals, is there someone who can explain the appeal of the musical?  I don't really get it.  Of course, I have enjoyed a bunch of operas, so maybe I am not really giving musicals a chance.

well, that is fine and understandable.   But I can't help wondering how Shakespeare would react if he were to come back to life and see some of these reimaginings

That's a good question.  He might be disgusted or he may be thrilled his works were still around.  

Or he may want to see that Inception movie that everyone has been talking about.
