Let Me Be Your Star
“Gummer,” recap of Season One, Episode Nine, in which I realized four constant themes in my work thus far and wrote a song about it. Here are the complete lyrics, to be sung to the tune of “My Favorite Things”: Meryl and Sondheim and Richard Santorum Bettelheim’s witches and Whoopi in Forum Adolf who prances and Patti who sings These are a few of my favorite things Golden retrievers and salmon sashimi Ice cubes and vodka and bars that ID me Flexible morals and secretive flings These are a few of my favorite things When my feet hurt, when the bills come When the card’s declined I simply remember my favorite things I then I don’t really mind * * * March 22, 2013, marked the 83rd birthday of Stephen Sondheim.
The following instructions for observing the religious holiday based on same were considered for, and ultimately cut from, my recap of March 27, 2013 (Season Two, Episode Eight): “The Naked and the Dreaming.”
The Festival of Sondheimas is celebrated each year on March 22nd.
