it just so happened to open this month 39 years ago - the original production of A Little Night Music. It was a perfect creative blending of every element of musical theater. If your definition of greatness is "a perfect creative blending of every element of musical theater," then it fails your own standard, as it hardly blended Dance at all, but rather left it off to the side as a negligible garnish that's not intended to be eaten. Chacun a son Goût.
