description

Summary

"In one hundred years from now"

Libretto: Boris Thomashefsky.

"One hundred years from now, people will be able to play to London and be back on the same day. I'll fly to France for lunch, Berlin for a matinee, and then on to Turkey for the night. By then, a penny will buy the world, and I'll still have all my own teeth."

From the musical "Upstairs and Downstairs" (General)
