      birds. From the song "Louder Than Words." Johnny, Susan, and Mike sing this line. This song is the finale.

    One of the creators of the musical "Two Gentlemen of Verona" was Galt MacDermot. What other musical did he have a hand in writing?Two Gentlemen of Verona: The Musical

      Hair. Galt MacDermot, along with Gerome Ragni and James Rado, created the smash-hit hippie show "Hair". Interesting side note: my aunt's middle school health teacher was Gerome Ragni's brother. Cool.

    Both the play and the musical take place in Verona, of course. But what is the other city that hosts much of the action?Two Gentlemen of Verona: The Musical

      Milan. One of the title's Two Gentlemen, Valentine sets off for Milan to seek his fame and fortune, and he is followed by his best friend Proteus, and Proteus is followed by his lover Julia (and in the musical, Julia's maid Lucetta as well).

    What happens to Julia in the musical that does NOT happen to her in Shakespeare's play?Two Gentlemen of Verona: The Musical

      She gets pregnant.. In the song "Two Gentlemen of Verona", which Julia sings with Lucetta and the female chorus, the ladies bewail their fate: they cannot travel to Milan to tell Proteus the news of Julia's pregnancy, because they, not being men, cannot travel alone.

    In the play, whose idea is it for Julia to dress as a man to visit Proteus in Milan?Two Gentlemen of Verona: The Musical

      Julia's. In the musical, the idea comes from the smart-mouthed maid, Lucetta, but Shakespeare's play give Julia the credit.

    What is the name of Launce's dog, who is given to Julia as a gift?Two Gentlemen of Verona: The Musical

      Crab. Poor Launce! He has a whole monologue bemoaning the fact that his entire family wept to see him travel to Milan with Proteus, but the dog never even shed a tear.

    Who originated the role of Proteus in the musical version?Two Gentlemen of Verona: The Musical

      Raul Julia. Yep! Long before he was Gomez Addams, Raul Julia played the equally suave (and surprisingly well-sung) lover/traitor Proteus in "Two Gents" who wrote "one thousand love letters" and who sings some of the wittiest songs in the show.

    The musical is traditionally cast with actors of various ethnic backgrounds. Of what ethnicity are Julia and Proteus?Two Gentlemen of Verona: The Musical

      Hispanic. Near the end of the musical, Julia bursts into her native tonuge--in song, no less!

    Which character in the play does NOT end up romantically linked to another?Two Gentlemen of Verona: The Musical

      The Duke. Yes, even the comic servant Launce gets hooked up with a milkmaid. Happily, Proteus returns to Julia and Valentine marries Silvia. In addition, in the musical, Thurio and Lucetta end up together!

    The musical is one that does not take itself seriously. In fact, the last song mentions hysteria, penis envy, and other "issues". What does "Love" eventually "do" to the characters?Two Gentlemen of Verona: The Musical

      Love drives them sane. During the final song in the show, the cast, with tongue in cheek, sing that "Love has driven me sane"...funny. "Two Gents" not a terribly popular piece, which is surprising since it won a Tony for Best Musical! If you like the musical quality of "Hair" and the band The Fifth Dimension...it's sort of like that. Definitely worth a listen!

      Kate McGowan. Interestingly enough, Kate McGowan proposes to Jim instead of the other way around, but the audience never finds out whether or not they actually marry.

    Who is the first to sing at the beginning of the show?"Titanic: A New Musical"
