Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which of these songs does NOT appear in "Evita"?

Answer: No Matter What

"No Matter What" is the major hit from "Whistle Down The Wind".

In 1998 a concept album was released from the musical with many stars covering the songs.

Boyzone released a single of "No Matter What" - it went platinum in the UK and went to number one in 18 countries.

It became the most successful single that came from a musical.
2. Which two ALW musicals have a character named Electra?

Answer: "Starlight Express" and "Cats"

In "Starlight Express" Electra is the new electric train. He has a whole heap of components that belong to him and he's rich, sexy, and spoilt AND he doesn't care whether his carriage is male or female.

"I'm electric - feel my attraction.
Feel my magnetism - you will agree
I am electric - I have the contact.
I am electric - the future is me.
AC/DC it's okay by me.
I can switch and change my frequency."

In "Cats" Electra is one of the young female kittens. She's a solemn, shy cat who's friendly with Etcetera and a fan of Rum Tum Tugger.
3. Which of these is a character in "Starlight Express"?

Answer: Espresso

Espresso is the Rome - Milan Express. He's one of the National trains competing for his country.

He races with Buffy in the London production but Ashley in most others and he loses in Heat One.
4. T. S. Eliot is associated with which ALW musical?

Answer: Cats

In the 1930s T.S. Eliot wrote some poems about cats and included them in letters to his godchildren. He signed these letters as 'Old Possum'.

In 1939 they were collected and compiled into "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats".

ALW used this book as the basis for the musical although he did add some extra characters - including Grizabella who does not appear in Eliot's work.
5. Which of these songs is from "Jesus Christ Superstar"?

Answer: Everything's All Right

This is sung by Mary Magdalene as she applies oil to Jesus and tries to get him to relax and ignore the world for a while.

"Eternal Youth Is Worth a Little Suffering" is also from "Sunset Boulevard" but is sung by Norma.

"Evermore Without You" is sung by Walter in "The Woman In White".
6. Which musical, set in Northern Ireland, is centered around the game of football?

Answer: The Beautiful Game

The musical's political and religious infighting is played out amid the background of the local football team.

John and Daniel even try out for Everton in the second act and all looks promising for John until he is arrested for helping Thomas escape and he goes to prison instead of England.
7. Which of these songs is sung by Fosco?

Answer: You Can Get Away With Anything

From the Second Act in "The Woman In White".

"You can get away with anything
to prove it is my sport
I live to push the boundaries
to break the rules, in short
One must be something of a bounder
if one intends to play this game
There's only one thing that one has to have
one has to have
no shame"

"Love Changes Everything" is sung by Alex in "Aspects Of Love".

Joseph sings "Close Every Door" in "Joseph And The Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat".

"Music Of The Night" is sung by, and from, "Phantom".
8. From which musical is the song "First Man you Remember'?

Answer: Aspects Of Love

This is sung at the house in Pau, in the Second Act, by George to his young daughter Jenny as they waltz around the terrace.

"I want to be
The first man you remember,
I want to be
The last man you forget.
I want to be
The one you always turn to,
I want to be
The one you won't regret."
9. What word beginning with F is a common link between all four of these shows : "Aspects Of Love", "The Woman In White", "The Beautiful Game" and "Evita"?

Answer: Funeral

All four musicals feature a funeral as a major part of the show's storyline.

In "Aspects Of Love" it is George's, toward the end of the show.

Laura's funeral is near the beginning of Act Two in "The Woman In White."

"The Beautiful Game" finishes Act One with Ginger's funeral.

Eva's death in "Evita" begins the show; her funeral follows and then the story moves back in time and begins at her father's funeral.
10. In which musical would you find a song about freight?

Answer: Starlight Express

The song is sung by all of the freight trains - Rocky I, Rocky II, Rocky III, C.B, Dustin, and Flat-Top - and the coaches, who are not keen on them, join in to tease them.

"Freight is great, freight is great
We carry weight 'cos we are freight
And freight is great
We never make a fuss, you got the goods on us
We take the loads from off the roads
And freight is great "
