I haven’t put up an iPod shuffle quiz since December<\/a> and felt like doing another. There’s no rhyme or reason to it, but here are the first lines of forty musical theatre songs. For the sake of keeping it interesting, I skipped anything with the title in the first line. Name the song title and show. I’m curious to see if anyone will take the challenge and if they do, see just well they do. Some answers are easy, others not so much. There’s no prize other than bragging rights, but it could be fun way to pass a little time. I’ll be posting the answers in one week.<\/p>\n
