Had a really fun work session with Kay Cole and John Boswell. I had what I thought was a brilliant idea for her opener - Kay was, of course, the original Maggie in A Chorus Line and she also was in Stop the World - I Want to Get Off with Anthony Newley. So, my idea was to announce her, and then John would start the famous A Chorus Line "One" vamp, Kay comes out but instead of launching into One she sings Once in a Lifetime but the accompaniment figures are all from One - it works amazingly well - John played through it and Kay and I were just tickled - we made some adjustments to it, but that is why I love arranging.
