...secondary players can sing; there are very few flat notes on little side solos, and the moments of all-cast a cappella are worthy of--dare we say it--Memorial Church. All this is atop an orchestra which, despite an occasionally over-zealous snare, disappears from consciousness after the overture as the best pit orchestras know...

Being voted "Most Spirited Teacher" may not be the most compelling credential for the Senate, but after entering the race on a dare from his students, Morales logged 60,000 campaign miles in his pickup, using $8,000 in family savings and small contributions, and won the primary.
