I probably saw it for the first time when I caught a showing of the William Katt/Ben Vereen version on television (in the early 1980's?). I was smitten by the deliberate theatricality of it. It may have been the first time I'd seen a production which was self-conscious about being a performance, and I found it charming.
I still love most of the music, and was thrilled when my daughter's elementary school music teacher taught her class "Corner of the Sky"!
