The slide from grace is really more like gliding
And I've found the trick is not to stop the sliding
But to find a graceful way of staying slid

Re: Amex Platinum Card Experience

So I am asuming that here was a sail boat in some version of the broadway musical CATS?  Me I am a Rum Tum tugger fan.

Growltiger was a Bravo Cat, who lived upon a barge
 
............

In the forepeak of the vessel Growltiger sat alone,
Concentrating his attention on the Lady Griddlebone.
And his raffish crew were sleeping in their barrels and their bunks -
As the Siamese came creeping in their sampans and their junks.

 
 
And all the places he mentions are on the Thames, which is a river in England with a town called London on either side  Smiley Very Happy

I am suddenly feeling intimidated by the intelligent women in these forums.

Yes I understand that but never rememebr seeing that part when I went to see the paly.  Actually purchased the DVD of the broadway play from public television because I loved the play so much.  Wasn't there either. Then again, I can not remember one song form Mame or Porgie and Bess and that was almost as many years ago.

It depends on how they choose to produce it I guess.  In the original it did take place on a boat (and I am amazed I can remeber back that far!  Smiley Happy)

T.S. Eliot is rolling in his grave. Again.

Actually, it might be fun to see Betty Buckley and Johnny Depp on the same screen.

I listen to Andrew Lloyd Webber on CD's all the time, and it is a matter of pride to me that I somehow didn't break out into a single cut from Evita the entire time that the Argentine floor installers were here. They were too nice to do that to.

Good theme song for remodeling: "And the money kept rolling in and rolling out" Smiley Very Happy

I absolutely do not remember any nautical elements at all. It was all garbage cans and cars without wheels. This is what happens when you are off-off-off-off-off-off-Broadway, a few blocks away from the third largest football stadium in the U.S.
