If you had the power to ban any one play or musical from ever being on Broadway again, which would it be and why?

If it has the words "Really Useful Group Presents:" On the marquee, I would like to ban that show.

Footloose... most god awful show I've ever seen in my life.
From the evil she done Lord
Set her free, Set her free, Set me free
Don't let my sorrow
Make evil of me

Fame!!!
stuff like Movin out and Mamma Mia, I don't dislike those shows but it seems they should be in a separate category than broadway.

You asked a direct question and I gave you an honest answer. To me, CATS was nothing more than a litter box in need of a cleaning.

Yes, now and forever. You guys can hate CATS all you want, but there are allways gonna be people like me ready to produce the revival at Studio 54 in 2015....
I have it all planed out. I want Roundabout to do it. I want it done in a redesigned "horseshoe" house at Studio 54, I want some minor musical revisions and a "junkyard" style orchestra. And no cut songs! So many people think that the DVD is what CATS is, and they're so wrong! And the show will run forever. I don't care what I have to do to sell tickets, the cast will be naked every Tuesday, it's not closing! But I won't do stunt casting. CATS won't need it. Unless Elaine Paige or Betty Buckly wanted to return to the role of Grizabella, but I don't really see that as stunt casting....
and we're making a complete New Broadway Cast recording that includes all the dance sequences in Gumbie Cat and Mistoffolies, were including the battle of the Pekes and the Pollicles, no cuts will be made at all on the 2 CD set. And it will come with a 30 page full color booklet, like the Into the Woods revival CD.... I'm talkin' total 2 hour and 40 minute complete COMPLETE recording...

Rrrrright.
Okay, I have to agree with Cats. And maybe Bounce -- even though it never made it to Broadway. And My Life With Albertine -- may it never make it any farther than it did
