I think that's a narrow view of the characters and the musical form. I think those characters are desperate to sing... and I think there's a way to musicalize what isn't going on in their actual dialogue. I know that's one of the criticisms people had of the opera, that they didn't want to sing, but I still think I can hear them singing JRB music.
