      Rylosalex A lot of songs were cut for this movie, and that was one of them. There's a couple of extra lines that go before "When the danger's near...". Look for the soundtrack for the theater version, it has more songs and longer veraions of the songs.

    Back in 1956 I was a 12 year old choirboy. I was one of the sisters in my Boy’s boarding school production of The Pirates of Penzance. The following year I was down for one of the fairies in Iolanthe, but my voice broke during rehearsals so I was told to just mime.
    I quite enjoyed the drag and the make up, but this was the fifties and boys couldn’t admit to such things after about age 7.

      Not entirely. I actually preferred the original sisters. Wasn’t a huge fan of Angela Lansbury being cast as Ruth, either. But yes, the original 1980 summer theater in the park production’s overwhelming success is what spurred Universal to produce the film.

      @@JonathanToolonie Yes! Most people don't realize this, but being the theater major that I am, we've learned all sorts of crazy bits of info not normally so widely dispersed. Fun fact: In an attempt to make Mr. Depp look taller in this performance, all the other actors were specifically chosen for their height! (though they are of course wonderful, skill and love for the craft played a role too!). Mr. Depp, being only 5'4", had to give a more commanding presence on stage to show leadership, so they specifically used actors 5' and under for the scenes he'd share with them. Very similar to what Mr. Jackson did with the whole hobbits and stuff in the Lord of the Rings movies. Movie magic! I love it!
