Thanks!

Altho... I was kinda hoping to catch her in the show when I come to NY end of Sept.

Nevermind. Is it worth seeing anyway or shall I catch something else?

When is she due to leave?

Whats the news?? I have been waiting for ever to hear news on this happening!

A brand new revival was produced in 2006 ahead of transfering in 2007 but its folded on tour despite good reviews and healthy houses.

However - the producers, who have recently had a massive hit with 39 Steps, are looking at opening it directly onto the West End in 2009/Early 2010 ... so who knows if its successful a Broadway transfer could be insight.

Hows Young Frankenstein doing?

Anything Goes. La Cage. 42nd Street. Throughlly Modern Millie. Chrous Line. Mack and Mabel ... all have really good numbers to tap to

Kander and Ebb musicals seem to have more success now than when they first opened ... I think they have more relevance or can be more accepted for today.

Donna Murphy is a stunning idea - esp. in the NT prodution that was recently in London. (sally ann triplett was amazing, but is she known to you guys out there?!)

who would you have play Reno ??

Really sad to see it go - but its done extremly well.

Planning a London opening towards the end of the year by all accounts...

Do you ever think we will see the stunning revival on broadway or anywhere else?

It was such an almighty shame to just loose it.

The show in the end was awfully rushed. It launced in February and opened in June. They thought Evita would natuarally just sell (like they do when a broadway it comes to london) so the marketing and advertising initially wasn't huge and needed to be.

Also the production didn't help. It was awful. I love the music from Evita and love the show but this production was just so bland. The choreography didn't reflect the time and setting at all. Elena Roger, yes shes good, but no real star I

Will the big US tour come to Broadway?

into da woods

Calm down dears... just don't see why it has to change? Maybe because they have someone in mind for that role....

Peters, Ebersole, Monk even Megan Mullally would be great.

I hope they revive this show soon!

Dont know abour Cry Baby.

Xanadu is a sleeperhit...and I kinda agree, Curtains is too.

Maybe In The Heights will be. maybe the sleeper hit is still out there...asleep

But this, when you see the film, just has musical splashed across it. I just hope they get the rights to "You Dont Own Me"

Gleason: Annie
Mullally: Brenda
Peters: Elise

I dont get why Elise would be african american for.

Maggie Smith and Victor Garver reprising their role would be heavenly

I love the film and think its perfect for a broadway show! Hope they get on to it asap!!

Bernadette has to star.

Have to say after seeing Frances' Showboat and recently Little Mermaid, i'm not blown away by her directing...
