The Count introduces a song from Two Plus Two
Two by Two is a 1970 Broadway musical, based on Clifford Odets' play The Flowered Peach, centering on Noah and his family before, during, and after the flood. With a book by Peter Stone and music by Richard Rodgers, the original production was mainly a vehicle for Danny Kaye as Noah. Following a two week absence due to an ankle injury, Kaye ad-libbed and talked to the audience for the remainder of the run.
