I think the original poster's point is that why is Sally a bad singer when Kost, Schneider, Schultz, Ernst, etc. often are.

If you are going to apply that reality to musicals why is Nellie Forbush a good singer? (she's a nurse) Why is Evita a good singer? Why is.....


and in the movie Liza is supposed to be a good singer. Right after she leaves the stage Brian says something like you are really quite wonderful and she says I know darling! She is only like 19 and in Germany during a recession so career opportunities are not exactly plentiful.

I always feel the movie is such a different story. She aborts the baby for other reasons too but also because "she has this foolish dream she might even make something out of herself as an actress." (quote is not exact)
