i just finished this! ;D it was written at the end of the 19th century by Jules Verne, who also wrote Journey to the Centre of the Earth, and Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. there was a film made about it in the 60's or 70's which was really cool. has anyone else read this? the story is pretty self explanatory because of the title hehehe ;D but if anyone replies i'll do a mini-synopsis..

LMAO! That cracked me up ;D I liked all the songs... it's probably one of the only musicals I can stand I used to sing "You're never fully dressed without a smile" all the time when I was younger I should get the DVD, for old time's sake ;D All I've got is an old "taped from the TV" version... and that's on a Beta cassette!
