It is what it is.

Nearly all the great musicals had adult themes, even “South Pacific” and “The Sound of Music”.

And who can forget “Showboat”? :-)

And after the sturm and drang, they all got married.

Ezio Pinza was an elderly, paunchy, over-the-hill singer when he was cast in South Pacific.

But he was transformed into a matinee idol with women hanging around his stage door by one song, sung when he thinks he's lost Nellie, "This Nearly Was Mine."
