What musical is hinted at by this puzzle?
Actually, the construction is rather amazing! Thanks Francis Heaney.

Had the answer much earlier - just didn't recognize it until just now.

I agree--awesome construction on this one. Probably my favorite Fireball since "Bon Mot" in 2018, about the Paris arrondissements. And yet very fair. If you follow the bread crumbs, it's very doable.

Good smooth solve. But didn't see any meta staring at this one, per usual.

Nice Friday-Saturday level cluing. Had to Google most of the top center. Then a good bit of staring. Without the aberrant theme entry this would have tougher for me.

That was a lovely puzzle! Challenging but totally doable. And as my pile of metas this week has not had many solves, I'm glad to say I got this one!

I see the first thing. And I see the second thing. But I can't close the deal.
