Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris 1973
Mr. Seymour maintains that this production was produced by a group distinct from Torn Ticket. Well, I subscribe to a principle termed "Occam's razor". This is often paraphrased as "All things being equal, the simplest solution tends to be the best one." In other words, when multiple competing theories are equal in other respects, the principle recommends selecting the theory that introduces the fewest assumptions and postulates the fewest hypothetical entities. So, what looks like Torn Ticket and sounds like Torn Ticket is Torn Ticket.
This was de facto the first Torn Ticket minor production, performed in the MacPhee "coffee house".
