And of course, this show was from the era when singing didnt mean being able to scream like a pop star. Sarah Brown is the only true singing role in the show. Nicely Nicely comes in a close second. Robert Alda who originated Sky was a Robert Preston type 'singer'. Nathan isn't a 'singer'. Adelaid isn't a 'singer'. They were characters who could act and sing. A lost world.
