I’m never sure how much to cross-post between here and Tumblr
...but some people over here might find this relevant to their interests.
I decided a while back that in the unlikely event I ever get access to time travel, I will only use it for frivolous purposes. Specifically, for seeing long-ago theatrical performances that I only know from descriptions because they weren’t filmed or recorded. Even by those standards, Sitting Pretty is a show that fell into a black hole, so I will just have to listen to this recording of a remount in the early 1990s and try to imagine what it would have been like to see and hear this song performed by Dwight Frye (!) and Frank McIntyre.

I just want to be able to hear him sing!
(Honestly, I kind of assume Dwight Frye could do anything, but most of it wasn't on film. Like seeing Elisha Cook Jr. in his cute fresh-faced dork phase.)
None were, and I have to assume that “When Vienna and I Were Young” is not a song that exists in our waking world.
. . . It may not be, but it chimes really closely with something I have heard, which I will try to remember well enough to run down for you.
