"Our Town" was just revived in 2002-2003 on Broadway. Plus it's done all over the place. I'd rather see a good revival of "The Matchmaker" or "Skin of Our Teeth".
I'd like to see a revival of "Dancing at Lughnasa".
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
I'd like to see new plays on Broadway, please. For a nifty change of pace.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

Megan Mullally as Dolly in "The Matchmaker". Maybe Ron Rifkin as Horace.
Several years ago, the Public did a production of "Skin..." in Central Park. John Goodman was Mr. Antrobus and gave a great performance. Kristen Johnson was Sabina and IMO gave a mediocre performance.

A revival of The Matchmaker starring Megan Mullally would be amazing. Or a revival of Skin of Our Teeth with John Lithgow as Mr. Antrobus.
And just last week I saw Marian Seldes and Edward Albee speak at a conference in NJ, and it made me think that Marian would be an inspired choice to play the Stage Manager if a revival of Our Town ever came to be.
I'd also love to see Lughnasa--I've only ever seen a really unfortunate student production.
And though I'd kill for an Angels in America revival because I was just a touch too young last time around, is it time yet? Also, isn't the Signature doing a Kushner year soon? What are the chances they'd tackle Angels?
I would love to see both! I was in Our Town when i was in elementary and really didnt understand it but fell in love with it my senior year. I saw Dancing at Lughnasa at a state uil meet and it was breathtaking.
I would love to see Signature do ANGELS, hopefully a full production. However, it hasn't been on Broadway in years, and with the increased interest brought on by the HBO film, I think any time would be a good time for a revival.
