Looking back now, I realize I was fortunate enough to have actually seen Robert Preston on Broadway in “The Music Man,” not quite front and center, but only two or three rows in back of the orchestra. I still remember him throwing an arm in my direction at one point during “76 Trombones.” He was at his prime then, so I know, too, this was a while back.
Seeing a Broadway play with someone like a Howard Keel in it must really be something.
Great memory. I wish I could go back in time to see “Prez” on stage in “The Music Man.” At least we have the movie,which is not perfect, but very good.
