I'm pretty sure, I read, there was a premiere, or at least planned in Australia a couple of years ago. Wasn't Tommy Tune connected with it?

You are right FranklinShepard_Inc. About seven years ago the first workshop of EASTER PARADE was held here (Australia) with Tommy Tune and Sandy Duncan and local supporting cast. A second workshop was done in New York about six months later where considerable rewrites were done, it was presented to an invited audience and disappeared never to be heard of again. Until now.
