With personal memories of such wonderful shows as Coleman has composed, has any producer been interested in doing something ala Jerome Robbins Broadway with Cy's music? What do you think?

There is one. It's called "The Best Is Yet To Come" David Zippel was responsible.

I actually just finished writing something like this...a revue type of show combining Coleman, Kern, and original music. I was wondering if it could work.

Eh, because you never know what people will like! Or where to draw the line between gimmicky and innovative!

If you'd like to read it, Mr. Roxy, I would be happy to send it to you for feedback...
