Galt MacDermot had come to my piano from his home on Staten Island, and for no reason other than the spirit of collaboration he’d written the perfect tune to go with my imperfect song. I’d been working on an ill-fated revue with an actress friend. Various composers had contributed melodies for our lyrics. None were of MacDermot’s stature, at least in my mind. I had fallen in love with his music 30 years prior, in 1971 when I went as a junior high school kid to see the Broadway production of Two Gentleman of Verona, a bawdy romp full of sexual innuendo, mocking self-regard and anti-war jabs. I remember the diverse cast, funky choreography, John Guare lyrics and motley funkadelic costumes.
