Horrible horrible script. Thank goodness it has good music.

I often use the song 42nd street for singing auditions. Its sucha good one and I can tap and sing to it simultaneously too so that always seems to impress. It got me into two prestigious places....AMDA NY and female winner of the Md State acting scholarship with the International Thespian Society for my graduating year. I know a few selctions from this show. Saw it once too I beleive. Long time ago.
