看完有点明白为什么会merrily会扑街了，其实故事和音乐都有很有意思，但没有合适的载体也是白费。一部剧到底有没有成功真的只有观众反响说了算，桑爷爷和普林斯当年选择了冒险却没有押对边……导演是OBC当事人之一，没有过多碰触过去的伤痛，把整个纪录片拍得好像温暖又励志的现代童话，好看。

上课看的讲桑爷爷的merrily的纪录片。看完后不少人在啜泣。里面的几位主演在二十年后聚在一起，有发福的，有秃顶的，也有头发灰白的，再一次在一架钢琴伴奏下唱起good thing going，眼里依然满怀当年得知被选进桑剧的那样热切。这就是对戏剧和舞台最纯粹的感情吧……

absolutely fantastic!!!

"21 years before, we were watching audiences walk up the aisle; 21 years later, they were standing on their feet screaming at a rock concert. 21 years before, Stephen Sondheim and Hal Prince were never going to work together again; 21 years later, they're hugging each other, talking about their next project." Merrily they rolled along.
