What made this work so distastefully compelling to watch in its various incarnations, is that one of the theatre world’s worst-kept secrets was that Dykstra’s two-decade marriage to singer Melanie Doane was dissolving as he kept recreating the pain on stage.

When I met Ted I didn’t know he played piano or had a show called 2 Pianos 4 Hands or anything like that. I just knew that he was a director in the theatre. So, needless to say, the first time Ted got up to play piano at a salon, I was absolutely stunned. I’ll never forget it as long as I live. He played “Great Balls of Fire” and “Bennie and the Jets,” and when he sat back down at the table, I couldn’t speak.
