Cow catapult, anyone?

I’ll do anything I can to avoid reviewing The Sound of Music. One of my fellow critics feels that way about Cats. But I really wasn’t joking when I told our editor that my nightmare was a Music Circus season that included Oklahoma!. I don’t care how good the dancing is, or whether the “Pore Jud Is Daid” scene tries anything original. The only thing that can make that show worth watching is if one of my kids is in it—and I don’t have kids! At least the Music Circus season is kicking off with Monty Python’s Spamalot. Maybe we could keep a cow catapult for the Sooners to use when the wind comes sweepin’ down the plains?
