    • Welcome to “well, That’s Show Biz!”. I am your host, Jeremy Freedman, and this is the show that brings you music from Broadway, Movies, and Entertainers along with some anecdotes, information, and commentary all based on a theme.


    • Today’s show was pre-recorded.


    • Today is the 5th show in a series called Guess the Musical where I will play 3 songs from a show without giving any information about the show in advance and you try to Guess the Musicals. The musicals must have at least two different recordings. Examples include original production, film version, revival, and concert version. Also, don’t look at your device while listening as the title of the song might appear which could give you inadvertent additional clues.

    • <1st Mystery Musical>


    • Did you Guess the Musical? You just heard “Waiting For the Girls Upstairs”, “Rain On the Roof”, and “Could I Leave You” from the 1971 Stephen Sondheim classic musical Follies about the reunion of former showgirls meeting within the ruins of their former theater.
