Can anyone fill me in on any other major American revivals of Pacific Overtures other than these...
Original 1976 Broadway
York 1984 run
Off-Broadway 1984-85 run
Broadway Roundabout revival
I'm dong research, and someone mentioned a Kennedy Center or Lincoln Center production. The show wasn't a part of Kennedy Center's Sondheim Celebration, but that's as much as I know. Much thanks!

Posted: 12/19/06 at 11:22pmDoes anyone know if Sondheim and Prince had a backer's audition/read through for this show and Company, like they did for ALNM, Sweeney Todd, and Merrily? Just curious.

There was a very well recieved revival directed by Gary Griffin at Chicago Shakes that I traveled to the Donmar in London. I thought it was kinda tacky they used white people. But. Whatever.
