intellectual scrutiny huge
It doesn't stand up to huge intellectual scrutiny.
goodbye thinking long-ago
Think of me, think of me fondly When we've said goodbye Remember me once in a while Please promise me, you'll try... Recall those days, look back on all those times Think of those things we'll never do There will never be a day When I won't think of you... Can it be? Can it be Christine... Long ago, it seems so long ago How young and innocent we were She may not remember me But I remember her
successful thinking white
I think it's probably, musically, probably the most sophisticated. ("The Woman in White") There's a lot more daring harmony in it than in some of my pieces...If you know what you want to do, as I always loved musicals, and then to have been lucky enough to be successful with them, I think that's all you can ask, isn't it?...Sondheim is absolutely wonderful and Alan Jay Lerner was wonderful.
evening want theater
Surely, you go to the theater because you want to have a great evening in the theater.
regret theatre reason
The regrets in the theatre have always been the shows that you know ought to have worked but for one reason or another haven't.
two ghouls keys
I knew nothing about film at all. I suppose the biggest surprise is all these things. In the theatre we sort of do, I might do two or three key interviews and that would be it.
goodbye memories years
No more memories, no more silent tears. No more gazing across the wasted years. Help me say goodbye.
caress feels
Softly, deftly, music shall caress you. Hear it, feel it, Secretly possess you.
change nice white
I would have gone right ahead but the only thing, the only phenomenon that's going on now of course, which is different in my experiences, is that you are getting things planted in the Net by people about the Woman in White on the Net. That's not a nice change.
world want lucky
You're the luckiest person in the entire world if you know what you really want to do, which I was lucky enough to know when I was very young. And you're the luckiest person in the world if you can then make a living out of it.
writing college people
When people ask me if musical theatre should be taught in music colleges, I reply that there is no need. All anyone needs to study is the second act of La Boheme because it is the most tightly constructed piece of musical theatre that there is. It is practically director-proof: you can't stage it badly because it just works too well. If you can write La Boheme, you can write anything. I would also recommend studying Britten's Peter Grimes.
summer communication night
Love can make a summer fly, or a night seem like a lifetime.
successful thinking lucky
If you know what you want to do, as I always loved musicals, and then to have been lucky enough to be successful with them, I think that's all you can ask isn't it? I think I don't really think too much about it. I am a bit shy socially, yeah, I admit that.
differences ingredients lines
What strikes me is that theres a very fine line between success and failure. Just one ingredient can make the difference.
