re: A Little Princess: National Tour

I think you stand a greater chance of making an impression with "A Little Princess". I am always a fan of taking the greatest gamble. (I know, it's easy for me to talk when it isn't my money.) If you tour PETER PAN, you may get a lot of audiences expecting the old Moose Charlap version. (This is partly why the Yeston/Kopit PHANTOM became a regional hit--audiences who came expecting the famous Andrew Lloyd Webber version. I hasten to say "partly" because I find the Yeston/Kopit PHANTOM far superior to the Webber.)
I ask in all honesty/What would life be?/Without a song and a dance, what are we?/So I say "Thank you for the music/For giving it to me."

Might I suggest producing an original musical that doesn't already have several different versions? Or a revival of a well known musical? Both Peter Pan and A Little Princess already have several different musical versions with one being the most popular and the others never making as much money.

Why don't you do a stage version of Pinocchio? You know, the story about the little wooden boy whose nose grows every time he tells a lie?

How does the Broadway Entertainment Company mount a six figure touring production when you can't even maintain a functional website?

re: A Little Princess: National Tour

In your original post you said that:

"The tour will be launched with a professional cast (Equity - NY Casting) with more than $100,000 put into set design and construction."

Now you're saying that set, costumes and props will only be $24,500. And how much is it going to cost you to have those equity actors from New York sit around Bloomington, Indiana just to do 1 to 3 shows a month?

re: A Little Princess: National Tour

I love the story of A Little Princess, and I would definitely go out of my way to see any musical version. I probably would not go out of my way to see ANY Peter Pan version- especially if it was not the classic one. re: A Little Princess: National Tour
So, that was the Drowsy Chaperone. Oh, I love it so much. I know it's not a perfect show...but it does what a musical is supposed to do. It takes you to another world, and it gives you a little tune to carry with you in your head for when you're feeling blue. Ya know?
