    "But we sing it anyway" - that line just destroyed me! I was sobbing so hard in a silent theater ... And then "Because here's the thing: to know how it ends, and still begin to sing it anyway ..." - utter destruction. I can't even talk about it weeks later without tearing up. I saw Jon Jon Briones as Hermes and he was so fantastic. What an incredibly beautiful statement on hope. I loved this so much.

      I saw Jon Jon in April and I came into this show unaware of the ending (I prefer to do that if I can) and I was not prepared at all for the emotional reaction I had to this bittersweet ending. I think it gives all the emotions for a few reasons: 1. Actors talents and giving their all to their performance 2. The story brings up the emotions of time and how all stories should be told even if they are sad. 3 Orpheous is really all of us, we think we can get where we need to be without looking back, but it's impossible. I cannot watch this last scene without crying still.

    I hear what Sondheim is saying about “There’s a place for us” having a problematic melody line, but in the end it is ok, the rhythm and orchestration solve the problem: “There’s a” is lead-in to a downbeat, and the full texture with bass enters there at “place”
