amlibera's review against another edition
3.0
More interesting than successful, and what I enjoyed was more in the writing of it than as a script for production. I would love to have seen a strong early production of this and see where the comedy/laughs are. Did catch a joke on The Marx Brothers in the second act (referring to their original vaudeville act The Four Nightingales.

“I hope he will always be beside me, all through my life. Many are the things that vanish in this changing world, but a real friendship will always endure. If I could make one wish for you—for all of you—I would ask that you be given a great friendship.”

always super interesting seeing where and how Sondheim was inspired to write my favorite show. Fuck capitalism! Hell yeah! Also obsessed with Helen pulling a MAYBE YOU SHOULD MARRY HIM! in 1934
(3.5 rounded up)
