Has there ever been any shows about the Olympics or intersections with theatre outside of Andrew Lloyd Webber's delightfully cheezy tune?

I’m excited to see what will be in the art section of the LA opening Ceremonies in 2028. Didn’t Savion Glover do a tap routine for the 2002 opening ceremonies in Salt Lake City?

As a child back in '92, I remember watching this and seeing adults with tears in their eyes, wondering why they were sad. Now, as an adult, I realize they were not sad; they were hopeful and optimistic. This gorgeous song is such a throwback to one of the most memorable and joyous Olympics ever...still brings back the same feeling of that closing ceremony!
