Its funny how this "normal sounding" voice is one Sarah is putting on for an act and her "fun bubbly" voice is her normal one (or at least the one she uses in interviews)
Sorry to be “that guy” but I just find the alternative lyrics tasteless in terms of humor. I know it’s a song parodying a dysfunctional marriage but this is broadway musical and aside jokes of domestic violence and husbands who like the guys are just not funny especially when you’re a woman who’s been through either of these or both.
Richard Rodgers initially loved these lyrics, that is until his wife Dorothy pointed out that the final verses were about them, except for the "Sometimes he's homosexual" because as Sondheim pointed out in his book "Finishing the Hat" they were the most homophobic couple he had ever met.
I saw this show in Boston on its pre-Broadway try-out in 1965. Not a great show, but the songs are good, and this one is a sensation. Nice performance!
Thanks for posting! Loved this show. You should def update the video with the correct actress's name. This is Sarah Hunt. Sarah Stiles played a different role in this production.
Never thought I'd see Buck Barrow and Spinel sing a duet.
Glad to see they included the original Sondheim lyric!

And, of course, the "sometimes he's homosexual " got the biggest laugh! So clever...so Sondheim....and so not Rodgers 😀love it

Um, that's not Sarah Stiles.
That’s Sarah Hunt
"lately he tends to hit her" 💀
What a treat to see this in the actual show. I've been a fan of the song with the original lyrics for decades!
THAT’s how to sing that song.
