      Brilliant puzzle! I'm glad I remembered seeing the title FINISHINGTHEHAT

      referenced in a memorial essay or two! Clever theme and the references throughout to Sondheim and musical theater in general were so much fun!

        My mom helped me on this one since she's a huge theatre geek. Great way to help us bond!
