Hey, look! Snow! Hey, look! Unfinished songwriting paper!

I feel like a crotchety old man. "It was the youth that was responsible! All those pesky teenagers with their 'Rock and Roll' music taking over the radio... Crazy hippies! Why, in my day, we respected our elders, and we got quality shows like 'West Side Story' and 'Man of La Mancha'! Today, you get 'Seussical'! Young hoodlums!"

So yes, I am blaming the downfall of musical theatre on the emergence of youth culture. (But Harold Prince agrees with me, so there!) My classmates are going to love this.

I think I shall call it "Dubarry was a Lady, Angel was a Drag Queen: The Evolution of the Schism between Pop Music and Musical Theatre, From Cole Porter to Jonathan Larson". I shall call it squishy, at it will be my squishy.
