re: Alternate Titles for Popular Musicals

Hey, thanks - some are really very amusing re: Alternate Titles for Popular Musicals

How about these ones (taken from song titles in the show) --



*The Woman in White - "Evermore without You" ( although I do love the show...it really should have ran much longer re: Alternate Titles for Popular Musicals)

*The Boy from Oz - "Not the Boy Next Door" (he certainly wasn't!)

*Les Miserables - " Do Your Hear the People Sing?" ( they want a revival!)

*Sunset Boulevard - "With One Look" ( thanks to botox, nip and tuck re: Alternate Titles for Popular Musicals)

*A Little Night Music - "Send in the Clowns" ( little...they don't sing at all!)

*Wicked - "Defying Gravity" ( in the box office re: Alternate Titles for Popular Musicals)

*The Boy from Oz - "Once Before I Go" ( come back, Hugh/Peter/Curly/Joe Gillis/even Gaston/maybe Pal Joey :heart:.)

*The Producers - " I Wanna Be a Producer" ( no more!)

*Avenue Q - "It Sucks to be Me" ( put in your own reason...mine is living one longhaul flight away from Broadway re: Alternate Titles for Popular Musicals)

*Spamalot - "Caaammelotttt!" ( oops sorry - it was meant to be "the song that goes like this" re: Alternate Titles for Popular Musicals)
