Songs like "Make Them Hear You" and "Wheels of a Dream" are superb B-way anthems. One must hear the original soundtrack with Audra McDonald and Brian Stokes Mitchell beltin' out the numbers.

For me, no amount of mental steel wool can scrub out the Younger Brother/Evelyn Nesbit/Emma Goldman closet scene, or Harry K. Thaw...err...displaying himself to Houdini in jail. I love the musical, though. In my opinion it's the best Broadway score of the 90s (followed closely by Parade). And what a cast!

I want to read the book now. I don't think I could appreciate the movie after the musical, though, that's weird that they left out so many characters...
