Musicals--Not!

In the past two weeks, I have seen the two Broadway musicals now at the movies--Rent and The Producers.

Where are Rogers and Hammerstein and Andrew Lloyd Webber when you need them?

Besides being very adult in content, neither musical contains one single singable song.

I don't often say this, but--Oh for the good old days when one left the theater bouyantly humming one of the feel-good songs?

Have all the lyicists and music makers lost their muse? I look forward to the day when it comes back.
