Editing: Thinking through Extravagance Transitions Part 2

Since the last entry, while explaining a transitional problem with the 2nd Act, I spotted transitional problems in the 1st Act.

The first version is listed here:

Act 1

Let’s Go Play Tennis
Stars on an Island in the Sea
Road Dog (my light fearing Lovely)
The 25th Anniversary Song
Her Face
Workin’ For the Government (...a soldier's song.)
First Christmas (Being Together)
Oscar’s been good to David
Something’s Wrong With The (Her) System

I realized that I should list all musical components including the Prelude.

Also, I want to keep the audience alive, so I need to add a couple more "peppy" numbers. While getting coffee this morning I knew I had to write a song about extravagance, that the main lesson was missing.

Here is the latest:

Act 1

Open: Flight
Let’s Go Play Tennis
Stars on an Island in the Sea
Road Dog (my light fearing Lovely)
The 25th Anniversary Song
Her Face
Workin’ For the Government (...a soldier's song.)
First Christmas (Being Together)
Oscar’s been good to David
Something’s Wrong With The (Her) System
