Now? Probably not, but theater goes in cycles. There was a time when a Cats
or a Sweeney Todd or an Evita would have died at the gate, and a Chorus
Line would have languished off broadway somewhere as well. One of these
days someone will start doing serious light musicals again and they will
be back. For a while, of course.

Deadbone erotica is the prickly panic of forgotten milleniums, it is the moldy
billion year madness that creeps deep along the spinal behind of my mind.
