It is classic, quintessential Broadway: the Tommy Tune directed musical, "Grand Hotel." Strangers intersect in a hotel in 1930s Berlin with passion, crime and redemption the natural results, not to mention some snappy tunes and crowds of dancers choreographed to within an inch of their lives.

And as the perfect companion on the voyage, my guest is classic and quintessential as well: Phil Crosby, executive director of Richmond Triangle Players. We talk about one of the lesser known composer teams in the Broadway cannon, the delight generated by Michael Jeter, and the incredibly long road that "Grand Hotel" had to travel to finally land on Broadway.
