your show is going on

this lyric was written for the 1993 broadway cares/equity fights aids easter bonnet competition and was performed by laurie beechman, who sadly succumbed to cancer a few years later … that was the only performance of the song (music by henry krieger) until alicia irving sang it in the concert of my songs at the donnell library last week … chad kimball requested a copy of the lyric in memory of his cousin and so i post it here with the thought there are others to whom it may have meaning
