This is pure fluff, coming from a light hearted backstage conversation at “Annie” this morning: which musical would be the most changed or the most improved if the main character, from the time the play began to when it ended, was equipped with a big, sharp samurai sword?

Evan Hansen from Dear Evan Hansen
Diana from Next to Normal. (or, really, any of the alive family members.)
