A pause to remember Broadway composer Comden

Reuters.com: "Tuesday night the marquee of every Broadway theater will be dimmed at exactly 8 p.m. for one minute in memory of the great Betty Comden, who teamed with the late Adolph Green to write the books and lyrics for some of the most acclaimed and beloved musicals on stage and in film, including 'Singin' in the Rain.'"

I love to hear about the entire Broadway community doing something such as dimming every marquie in memory of someone, or doing the Broadway cares fundraiser. Its admirable that the new york theatre industry, one of the most notable examples of commericialism, money and industry in the world, stops and takes a moment, even if it is just a minute, to relax and be human.
