ACT ONE OPENER

 

“It’s The Artsies That We Love/I Wonder Why”

(Lovingly parodied from Irving Berlin’s “Call Me Madam.”  Parody Lyrics by Jason Marks)

 

I did Sweeney down at TheatreLab

Sang with Alexander, he was fab

But these damn awards are up for grab

I wonder why … I wonder why

 

Once was great, those actors sure could play

Saw Grey Gardens, that was starring Grey

Susan Sanford brings a tear to my eye

She always makes me cry

I wonder why

 

Sister Act was so fantastic

And The Wiz, enthusiastic

Don’t forget that Bright Star show, so nice

 

Guttenberg was super cheesy

And Atlantis, not so easy

And I saw Lizzie once or twice

Mr. Popper’s Penguins dazzled

But the boys from Plaid were frazzled

 

Robert Throckmorton donned his famous gloves!

There’s so much in town to see

That you just have to agree

It’s the Artsies that we love!

 

Time to start this evening right!

So sit back and hold on tight!

It’s the Artsies that we love!

BIANCA

I did Sweeney down at TheatreLab

Sang with Alexander, he was fab

But these damn awards are up for grab

I wonder why … I wonder why

 

Once was great, those actors sure could play

Saw Grey Gardens, that was starring Grey

Susan Sanford brings a tear to my eye

She always makes me cry

I wonder why

 

Sister Act was so fantastic

And The Wiz, enthusiastic

Don’t forget that Bright Star show, so nice

     Guttenberg was super cheesy

And Atlantis, not so easy

And I saw Lizzie once or twice

     Mr. Popper’s Penguins dazzled

But the boys from Plaid were frazzled

 

Robert Throckmorton donned his famous gloves!

There’s so much in town to see

That you just have to agree

It’s the Artsies that we love!

 

Time to start this evening right!

So sit back and hold on tight!

It’s the Artsies that we love!
