I love ❤️ this!
I wonder where the footage came from? I only recognize the brief clip of the Tharp Dance Company in the park.

I never saw the Broadway show, but I have the original cast recording from that era. The performances that stick in my mind are from the (1979) movie.

Especially this song, Aquarius, and that incredible performance by Cheryl Barns.

It has been called a fluffy, fun and irreverent look at the 60's counter culture. But it has an incredibly powerful message.

The primary love story isn't revealed until the last ten minutes of the film, and it has nothing to do with sex.

I've never met anyone who actually "gets" the end of the film.
