Talk about the way Act I George thinks about art, and how it affects his relationships with others. George whispers to himself, “Connect, George.” Obviously George connects deeply with his art, but has trouble connecting with people. Why do you think this is? The obvious central song about this is “Finishing the Hat,” and you will certainly need to discuss and analyze that song within your paper. Other songs that could give you a good deal of help include: “Color and Light,” some of George’s dialogue at the beginning of “We Do Not Belong Together,” “Beautiful,” and possibly “The Day Off”. Maybe even “Sunday in the Park with George,” although it’s Dot singing about George in that song, and not George singing, so be careful. Again, I wouldn’t advise trying to use ALL of these songs! I’m just naming some songs you should look at to get yourself started. But “Finishing the Hat” is pretty necessary for writing this paper.
