The following is a list of the songs as they have appeared in the Playbill(s) since the show's opening. Songs marked in red were originally in the show where I have listed them, but have been omitted or replaced as indicated. For simplicity, I did not make a separate song list for the Original Broadway Cast Recording (OBCR), I simply noted in red next to each song which does not appear on it.
You can read the liner notes from the cast recording at the SONY Classical website by clicking HERE.
