Customer Reviews

Charming, very funny
If you're editing the script for your own production or just want to read the story, then this is a really fantatstic book. Complete with stage directions as well as full song lyrics, it's very entertaining as well as a good story. If you loved the film, this would make interesting reading, as it's different from the movie.
