What favorite shows with scores composed by the late, great Cy Coleman? My personal favorite is BARNUM, butI also love I LOVE MY WIFE, SWEET CHARITY, THE LIFE, and ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY. Sweet Cy was one of the most versitile composers in Broadway history, and he will be greatly missed.


Praying Decca Broadway will put "Don't Bother Me, I Can't Cope" on CD!

There is always 'Little Me' ... my favorite Coleman score, with those incredible Carolyn Leigh lyrics and orchestrated to a fare-thee-well by Ralph Burns.

ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY, beyond a doubt. I love many of Coleman's musicals, but that one is special. And when you consider the score as a whole, I think it stacks up as one of the best Broadway scores ever written.

My favorite is "On the Twentieth Century" (naturally) and it's also my favorite musical period.

My favorite is Little Me. I thought the Faith Prince, Martin Short recording was hysterical.
