About this listen
Why is His Girl Friday the movie not a good idea, but Guys & Dolls magnificently was? The answer is in the third of David and Paul’s Three Questions For What Makes A Musical: Does it sing? Do I care? And, Why This Show, Why Now? A little sneak preview conversation about the Gordon & Goldsmith opus My Improbable Sisters, streaming now on YouTube (starring Jenna Lea Rosen and Tony™ nominee Jasmine Amy Rogers). Some Legally Blonde, some Les Miz (an epic disagreement about the scansion of “On My Own,” some firsthand John Caird stories from Paul… why David and Paul are loving writing their next big project, an adaption of Dickens’ Little Dorrit… and then, per Paul’s request, this week’s Paul & David Break It Down concerns one of David’s patter songs (a waltz, and with a French accent) from that very work-in-progress. A peek into David’s lyric-writing process and the collaboration between David and Paul writ large. Not that you asked. Wait though, you did. Enjoy.
