| "...although she's dressed up to the nines/at sixes and sevens with you." "Evita." There's a carbon copy of a first letter from Hal Prince to Lloyd Webber and Rice about staging the work and this is one of the lyrics he picked out to be changed. Wasn't changed. (Remember carbon paper?) It was exhibited at the Lincoln Center Library in "Curtain Up: Celebrating the Last 40 Years of Theatre in New York and London." Sweet little exhibit. Long closed now. |
