Welcome to the Theatre District

Nick: "What the hell are musicals?"

Nostradamus:
"It appears to be a play where the dialogue stops,
And the plot is conveyed through song"

Nick: "Through song?"

Nostradamus: "Yes."

Nick: "Wait, so an actor is saying his lines and out of nowhere he just starts singing?"

Nostradamus: "Yes."

Nick: "Well that is the,"
(Singing) Stupidest thing that I have ever heard
You're doing a play,

got something to say,
So you sing it?
It's absurd.
Who on earth is going to sit there,

while an actor breaks into song
And what possible thought,

could the audience think
Other than 'This is horribly wrong'

'A Musical' from Something Rotten
