I can't believe no one has tried to musicalize Tootsie yet. I saw it again on TV the other night, and it just cries out for it.

Folkyboy: I was actually just thinking that a musical of the old play 'The Desk Set' might work. It's a fun 'office' comedy. Also, how about a musical of "Adam's Rib". I've been watching a lot of old Hepburn/Tracy films lately.

I killed the boss, you don't think they're gonna fire me over a thing like that!!!!

I don't think it would technically be a revival, but Bare: A Pop Opera needs to come back.

Disney's Newsies would be a great Broadway Musical.
I'd like to see The Joy Luck Club as a play with music.
and a revival of Starlight Express because it's the craziest concept for a broadway show ever.

Going to a musical late in its run is like going to a prostitute late in her shift.

Speaking as a diehard who fan I have been a huge fan of the actuall tommy album before it was a show. I must say it should have stayed that way and never have become a show. So, I don't agree wit that revival. And, I cannot tell you the number of times they tried to revive Hair but it failed. I want to say that they tried something like nine times thus far but nothing.
