I was jet listening to THE BOY FRIEND the other day, and his sequel to it, DIVORCE ME DARLING.

I was previously known as Mr. Nowak (Joined: 5/20/13).

This is sad news. I listen to The Boy Friend all the time. Now there's a musical the way musicals should be, and with a delightful score the way scores should be.

Those who have deprived us of shows/scores like this have done us all a dirty turn, all right.

Thank you, Sandy Wilson for having brought joy and delight to our lives.

There, there. Get yourself a hard candy from the dish on the doily and calm down.

I just listened to the OBC again today, and I totally forgot how delightful the score is. I think this would be a fantastic revival to have nowadays, and I can only imagine the delight of seeing this show live.

The Boy Friend is such a delightful show and seldom done nowadays. More schools should do it as most of the characters are age appropriate. RIP Mr. Wilson, and thanks.
