The Drowsy Chaperone (original cast recording)

Copy at Case Memorial Library
Julie Klausner wrote at 23/6: "Dear sir or madam: My recent weekend trip to the fine city of Los Angeles was otherwise stellar. … And then, you had to go and break into my rental car and steal my CDs. … Forced now to listen to the radio … I drove back to my hotel on Sunset Boulevard, fuming at the loss of a substantial assortment of my music collection, and seething with contempt for the derelict who thought he was making out like a bandit with some of my favorite cast recordings from Broadway shows. … So, to the rogue currently programming 'Meth Hut' into his newly-acquired GPS system and, doubtlessly, listening to Once Upon a Mattress on top volume, all I can tell you is I hope the inspired whimsy infused in the Original Cast Recording of The Drowsy Chaperone does you half the good it did me. And perhaps the impassioned bleats of the proletariat from the sonorous score of Les Miserables will encourage you to divert your energies into stealing bread alone" ("Open Letter to the Resident of Los Angeles Who Broke Into My Rental Car," 4/14/08).
