True, fancy props do not necessarily a great musical make (Disney's hackneyed and overpriced Beauty and The Beast: The Musical, for example.)

...Flynt yearns to protect President Clinton from an onslaught of sexual interrogations and allegations, than his "Report" is the least likely solution.

She is perhaps the most demure sensual beast ever to have graced the modern novel with her penchant for provocation. As the heroine of Sue Miller's newest novel, While I Was Gone, Jo faces a grave dilemma: how to reconcile her domesticated life as a 52-year-old mother, wife and veterinarian with her sensual fantasies and hippie past. She is fascinated by naked flesh, particularly that of her daughters, her husband and her bar-waitress friends. Unlike her loving husband Daniel...
