Still, a word to the wise: these people are hard-core in other ways. I suspect many of my fel low watchers knew the movie backward and forward. I almost wished the entire movie had subtitles, since the viewers sometimes couldn’t contain their smart remarks.

Personally, it’s beyond my grasp that someone wouldn’t be excited about this. Whether you’ve seen this classic musical once or one hundred times, or even if you’ve never heard of it, you’ll love the excuse to bellow out “Climb Every Mountain.” It’s like singing in the shower, just in the dark, in costume, with prizes and a couple hun dred other people. you don’t pay attention.
