In almost every musical ever written, there’s a place, usually the third song in the evening, sometimes it’s the second, sometimes it’s the fourth, quite early, when the leading lady usually sits down on something … and sings about what she wants in life. And the audience falls in love with her, and then roots for her to get it for the rest of the night. —Howard Ashman (rest in peace)
