Aside from the "fag" to "drag" lyric change, another that pops into mind immediately is "The Very Next Man" from FIORELLO!. Instead of "And if he likes me/what does it matter if he strikes me/I'll fetch his slippers with my arm in a sling/just for the privilege of wearing his ring" we now have much more digestible to a modern audience version: "When he proposes, I'll have him send me tons of roses/sweet scented blossoms I'll enjoy by the hour./Why should I wait around for one little flower?”

Posted: 9/8/13 at 7:03pmRegarding THE FANTASTICKS, I recently saw a production where they had a note in the program explaining what the old fashioned meaning meant.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
