Of course, this is the case of a musical, which adds another aspect of distance to it. We have enough books about sex, more than we need probably, but as far as work, it's hardly been talked about, until recent years. When people talk about their jobs and their lives, and these are so-called ordinary people, they've never been asked these questions and they open up like a flower. Of course, some are more articulate than others. But the important thing is, when you cut through the facts, the conversations, the language is theatrical.
People are innately theatrical.
Well, old-time comics, that was a phrase they used. These are all theatrical words. So in a sense, theater done simply, is very effective. This happens to be a musical, so the element of music is added to it. I'm not interested in personal peccadilloes.
