Another Suitcase in Another Hall




My daughter thinks she discovered musical theatre all by herself, but she wasn’t paying attention. I played some – like the soundtrack to Evita constantly when she was small. Her brother was listening. I knew I was playing Les Mis too much when I caught him, aged 3, walking through the house singing, “I smell women, smell ‘em in the air”.

  2. I'm too distracted by the host's hair! I will have to listen to this without the video.

    1. Did your son ever decide to break into song while you were shopping, or during church? There are so many places/events that could be improved by a 3-year-old singing about smelling women!

  3. That's so funny! I had to google the "smelling women" song, and now I agree with Kim.

    Liked the Evita song - definitely I'm the right age to have heard all those. Amused at what Andrew Lloyd Webber looked like back in the day.

  4. Sabine you are so funny! And you were given good material at home. :-)

    Loved the Scottish singer, whom I'd never heard of.

  5. I played Les Mis a lot, but my daughter played it so much I actually got sick of it for a while.
