They better put Mr. Monotony into the broadway production. That number should never have been cut from the movie.

Maybe..., Did you happen to see my picture :)? One of my favorite musical comedy songs of all time.

Is this the same production that Tommy Tune helmed awhile ago? I remember hearing it was to premiere in Australia and then it kinda disappeared...I think Sandy Duncan was attached at one point.

I'd like to see Jeffry Denman in Astaire's part. His dancing comes as close to Astaire's as I've ever seen, and I thought he was a great actor when I saw him in WC. I have no idea for the other roles, though.

A theater here in MN is putting on the World Premiere of this show. It should be amazing. Casting is the 18th and 19th, but we don't find out who's cast untill the production untill it starts, which is next Feb.. They've had a lot of people from Broadway come and do shows here, so we'll see if any are in this production.
