Yesterday, I took a break from my rather hectic week to watch the German film that won Best Foreign Film at the Oscars. There was a short quote from the film that I found particularly memorable (which I discovered to be the director's inspiration for the creation of the story):
"You know what Lenin said about Beethoven's 'Apassionata'? If I keep listening to it, I won't finish the revolution. Can anyone who has heard this music, I mean truly heard it, really be a bad person?"
As I played Your Dreams Will Not Perform As Advertised" in our first combined rehearsal today, and watched the cast - some singing, some dancing, all full of smiles - bounding around the stage that was JMHH 245, I couldn't help but think - can anyone who has heard this music, I mean truly heard it, really be an unhappy person?
