    Fun fact: The original Broadway production of Merrily We Roll Along was a flop (unfortunate, because the music is amazing), but it was also the first big break for Jason Alexander!

    There’s a fun documentary about the musical- Best Worst Thing That Ever Could Have Happened- where he talks about an experience when he learned not to question Sondheim’s lyrics.
