And It's All Very Strange


The Original Broadway Cast, led by Bernadette Peters as the Witch
Courtesy of Martin Beck Theatre

Okay guys, so I've had some questions as to the titles of my posts. To clear this up, all of my titles are pulled directly from the show. Most of them (He's s Very Nice Prince, ...Well He's Tall) are lyrics. Others (First Midnight, Second Midnight, Last Midnight) are song titles. The rest of them (A Bean Can Begin an Adventure) are quotes from the characters.  The title of the whole blog, "Just a Moment: Into the Woods" is a play on the lyrics from the song "Moments in the Woods."
CINDERELLA'S PRINCE
This was just a moment in the woods.
Our moment,
Shimmering and lovely and sad.
Leave the moment, just be glad
For the moment that we had.
Every moment is of moment
When you're in the woods...

Goodbye.
I chose this because the show is just one of many. Washburn only does a musical every two or three years, but Topeka has multiple theatres that regularly put on shows, both musicals and plays. Regardless of the outcome of the casting, it is just a moment that we had.
