The Marie Clark Musical Theatre Company have chosen a show that is not often performed in Adelaide. The last time that I saw this show was in 1982, where I watched it every night from my place in the orchestra pit, and I have fond memories of that production. Happily, this group kept that memory alive and well, with a very fine performance.

The planet and mankind are amazing. To limit ourselves to behaviors as if there is nothing more is contradicted by an accurate comprehensive understanding of the planet and the universe. Basically, love is superior to all and the universe is the entropy necessary for the expression of love. Love itself requires there to be more and Samuel A. Nigro's The Soul of the Earth is a thesis, a complete evaluation, and a poetic explanation of what love requires in order not only to survive but to be fulfilled. Should mankind fail to give provision to something more for this entirely necessary human emotion, then mankind would fall off into solipsism and anarchy.
