My guesses are Oliver!, Caroline or Change, South Pacific, Singin' in the Rain, & then Honeymoon in Vegas we already found out about.

I think the Neil Diamond one is a bit of a stretch, but oh, if it were Caroline, or Change. :)

I'd be completely shocked if they were doing Caroline, or Change.

I started to say "This SCREAMS playing it safe, buy tickets blue-hairs!" but then realized if they're supporting two brand new works then I shouldn't blame them for being very very safe with the rest of the season.

Ugh, Grease again? Really? The 2003 version was good and well-cast with Andy Karl, Jennifer Hope Willis, Leslie Kritzer, etc. This is just gonna be another sad retread of a boring show with people nobody cares about.

Excited to see Honeymoon in Vegas and The Other Josh Cohen. Pass on the rest.

Finally, they are doing something original. Hmmm... Doesn't the Paper MIll get money specifically to foster new work? If so, they have been extorting dough from the government for the past three decades!

How do those pictures give hints to
1) Honeymoon in Vegas
2) Oliver!
3) The Other Josh Cohen (A New Musical)
4) South Pacific
5) Grease

I don't get it?

Never mind. I get the connections after reading through the posts and googling The Other Josh Cohen.

Why are so many theaters doing Grease(again)!!! The show is a bore. Was hoping for Singin' In The Rain instead.

Dull, as usual.

yawn. People are still doing Grease and Oliver? Whyyyy!? And, I wonder why Papermill isn't doing The Little Mermaid.

Papermill is doing MERMAID this summer. In just a few months.

Whoops, I meant Mary Poppins, not Mermaid.

OK, I'm still working on the Neil Diamond connection to The Other. What am I missing?

The lead character in The Other Josh Cohen gets robbed and the only thing that's left in his apartment is a Neil Diamond CD, if I'm remembering the show correctly from when I saw it at NYMF (as V-Day).

That's right, perfectlymarvelous. I had fun at the production but am surprised to hear it's going to have another incarnation.

Ah! Thank you, perfectlymarvelous.

Thank you for guessing... Here is how it played out... Photo #1 is Priscilla Presley on her wedding night; Photo 2 is a Sourberry, in reference to the Sourberry's in Oliver; Photo 3 is Neil Diamond. In The Other Josh Cohen, a Neil Diamond CD is the only thing left in a burglarized NYC apartment; Photo 4 is Dame Judy Dench, There is Nothing Like a Dame and Photo 5 is a watercolor entitled, It's Raining on Prom Night which is a song in Grease. Thank you for playing! Paper Mill Playhouse

And while we're at it, it's Paper Mill. TWO WORDS. It never fails to crack me up that people on this board love to point out (often in smug ways) whenever someone's name is spelled incorrectly, but allow the continued mangling of a major theater's name. I'm as big a pedant as the bulk of you, and one of the hallmarks of this character trait is a demand for consistency.
