Wonderland and In Transit are still 2 of my fav shows of all time. I knew they were short lived, but I actually just had to go look up how short. Didn't realize they were both only about a month. Surprised no one has said "Holler If Ya Hear Me" yet.
Steel Pier - had the pedigree: Scott Ellis, Susan Stroman, Kander & Ebb, Karen Ziemba, Kristin Chenoweth in her Broadway debut. Nominated for everything, won nothing. Those in the show remember it fondly.
Bandstand - bad timing? Misleading name? National tour supposed to begin next month through June. No cast yet. At least there’s a good film that captures the show.
John Simon, at 92, praised Bandstand. Not outstanding but better than its Tony competition including dreary, tuneless and improbable Dear Evan. Is it considered positive or negative to be praised by Simon?
