So you're reading Goodbye to Berlin. You read the line "She sang badly, without any expression, her hands hanging down at her sides."
You think "This would be a great musical!"
And of course, you are right.
Half a Sixpence
John Cleese and Terry Gilliam met while appearing in a West End production of the musical Half a Sixpence, starring Tommy Steele. It was in the same production that Cleese met his future wife Connie Booth. The book for Half a Sixpence was written by Beverley Cross, later married to Maggie Smith.
