I know more show tunes than a straight guy has any right to know. What music should I use for this J6 musical? Something original? Something borrowed?
When I watched the House Select Committee coverage, I saw some familiar themes. Duty. Government. Cops. Pirates. Love unrequited.
I realized that I was watching "The Pirates of Penzance," but it’s J6, not February 29th. Gilbert & Sullivan would recognize the moment.
And G&S music is in the public domain. And I could Weird-Al the lyrics to match the situation. And I could add fictional elements and music from my other favorite G&S productions. And…
I knew which way to go. With catlike tread.
