I do love this musical!! Being "only 60 inches high," I've always loved the song "Honey Bun," and my dad taught me "Dites-Moi" when I was little. As an adult, I'm surprised at the boldness with which this musical confronted racism. And I'm surprised the way both the stage and movie versions employed Italian actors to portray the French Emil De Becque. (What do we Americans know, right? All foreign accents sound alike! {{shudder}} )"Witches are good! Witches are dear!"
