The above article fails to include PETER PAN - a show with LOVELY songs that is celebrating its 50th Anniversary which has been revived to Broadway 6 times and has several different Cast Recordings.
I don't mean to complain just because this is one of my favorite shows - but its never mentioned. I remember reading articles from when Adolph Green died and it didn't mention his working on PETER PAN. Nor did other articles written later about concerts.
Why disregard such a beloved show??
Rant over.

That's Adolph. The other spelling ist nicht gut.

Posted: 12/10/04 at 6:36pmI agree. I think it's because Peter Pan is considered a children's show and snobby people don't consider children's shows as art. But I think they did an excellent job with it.

Posted: 12/10/04 at 8:22pmDon't worry...the article also forgot to mention "Bonanza Bound" and their screenplay for "The Bandwagon". Perhaps "Peter Pan" was omitted because they didn't write the entire score?
