I agree about the Mary reprise also. I do see why Beth certainly could be singing - and it does set up a bit of rivalry between the two women. BUT - as Sondheim was always after clarity, I would have challenged him that having Beth sing too away the clarity of the song being more pointedly about Mary's feelings for Frank.
Ultimately, I would have just been happy without that extra "day" in Beth's solo version in Act I. (I commented on that already here somewhere...) |
