...characters involved in the central love story seem too busy in their roles as plot devices to be terribly interesting, although Budris and Levine have an entertaining duet in which they demonstrate what, exactly, the draconian laws of the Mikado forbid them to do. Yum-Yum eventually reveals some personality in a song about her own earth-shattering beauty...
...Berlin neighborhood of Neukölln, known for its large, mainly Turkish, immigrant population, the two ministers joined forces with 23-year-old German Turkish singer Muhabbet to record the pro-immigration hymn Deutschland. Senior politicians rarely visit the troubled neighborhood, much less show up to sing a duet. But if the two men in suits were feeling awkward, they certainly didn't let it show. Steinmeier smiled and grooved to the music - a mixture of Turkish folk and R&B which Muhabbet calls "R 'n' Besk" - while Kouchner rhythmically snapped his fingers...
...songwriting history, Brooks's simplistic tunemaking managed to stick in your head ("I wan-na be a pro-du-cer") in a way that richer and more ambitious Broadway scores don't.

And the children, I'm not kidding, give mime performances. In Wedding Crashers and other movies, broods like this...
...featured a band of flirtatious, pixie-like figures, who teased and played with each other using both set choreography and improvisation. The use of the curtain across the back of the stage was the most creative and also the most humorous part of the piece; during a solo or duet, a gesturing hand or foot would appear from under the curtain, suggesting further frolicking behind the scenes. Again, Murcek’s energy and visible exuberance shone and made her stand out from the rest of the dancers...
