I got 9 🙁 I KNEW A LOT OF THESE I JUST COULDN’T REMEMBER WHERE THEY WERE FROM!

I have to say, if the first song of your Round 2 is a musical I didn't even know had been made into a musical, the quiz is too hard.

A Chorus has an overture? Not the show, maybe the movie.

[@stephenr3910]

Yeah, I recognized the melody and asked the same thing. Maybe the revival did?

[@robertplattner1636]

Yeah, the point of the lone piano in the opening number was to keep the orchestra a surprise until “5, 6, 7, 8!”

[@susansokoloski2233]

36, most of which points came from the 2nd and 3rd round...which I guess gives an idea of my age 😉

[@stephenr3910]

I do better on the 20th century musicals, being an old person.

[@thomasbradley4505]

Same here. The last part was easiest since most of them were older.
