Thanks for this piece, Sam. Ironically, it led me to think about 1964's ill-fated musical, Anyone Can Whistle. Can't help but wonder if the show might have gotten more press if Sondheim had added an "s" to the title of one song -- so that it became "There Won't Be Strumpets."

Funny you should mention Sondheim; see next week's post, Chapter Twelve, for a picture of one of "The Worst Pies in London."
