Ovation exploration

Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: "Applause can be an award or a motivational force, serve as recognition or inspiration. But trying to find out where it originated is like trying to find who told the first joke or sang the first song."

Applause is basically the reason I want to do live theatre over any other entertainment media. It's amazing.

"That happy sound rolls over you
And just like that
Trumpets all sing
Life seems to swing
Love hits you right where you're at"
--Comden & Green, Applause, 1970
