The "and" on the anchor clock is just a watermark. I found the place they got the picture from. It's not a clue

Also, the "Anchor Clock" is an attraction in Vienna

I looked at the first one and all I could think was "Someone's done a musical called "The Brazillian?"

The space one has "second star to the right" and tinkerbelle all over it.

Clearly the SF shot is Full House: The Musical

If you look at the larger picture a pirate ship is clearly visible on the water.

Yeah, #2 is definitely Peter Pan.

Wait, there is a Full House musical? Oh dear lord.

1- definitely Little House on the Prairie. I now remember reading something about that one.

2- It's got to be Peter Pan (won't that be fun!!)

3- I have not a clue

4- Would they really do Anything Goes again? Could they top the production they did with Chita years ago?

5- Smokey Joe's Cafe, I guess, but what a dull choice.

Number 4 is not Anything Goes, they just did it a few years ago with Chita Rivera (I saw it and it was top notch) they would not repeat a show that soon, with subscribers being their main audience.

4. Seafarer??

"Very Good Eddie" is also another musical that takes place on a ship. So that could be number 4 maybe.

oh! I remember seeing Peter Pan at the Paper Mill when I was just a wee mite. I'd love to see it again.

But this time, it won't be a Robert Johanson vanity production where he casts himself as Peter.

I wonder if they've got Cathy Rigby lined up for this...she did it last summer at Goodspeed, so her farewell was not exactly her farewell.

I'm still thinking that the fact there's a clock on the anchor means something. They could have just posted a picture of an anchor if it were simply about a ship or takes place on a ship

#42

re: Guess the Paper Mill's new season

Posted: 3/9/09 at 9:17pm

would they ever do a big flop?

maybe I am reading too into it, but they could possibly be doing The Pirate Queen for the anchor. and the clock might signify it took place a long time ago? probably not, but I wouldn't mind

Maybe they're doing "Pirate Movie: The Musical". It features a dream that takes place in the past

No way would Papermill do a big flop in this economy.

4. Might be Anything Goes
1. Into the Woods or Little House on the Pearie (sp)

Y'all are forgetting the obvious: Pirates of Penzance.

And 3 has to be Flower Drum Song, as there's a song called "Grant Avenue" (...Calfornia, San Francisco USA...)

Paper Mill just did PIRATES!, Nell Benjamin and John McDaniel's musical based on PIRATES OF PENZANCE.

I would think, since they are subscriber-based, that they'd shy away from that piece this soon after doing something so close in terms of material.

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

well I was wondering.. could they clues signify a single song in it? or does it represent the show as a whole?
Because if it is a song, number 5. reminded me of Coffee in a Cardboard Cup, so it could either be And The World Goes 'Round or 70, Girls, 70
and I know its not those, but, every time I see coffee I always think of that lovely song :)

I saw 5 and thought, PLEASE GOD, LET THEM BE DOING "BIG"!

Would be excited to see their production of Peter Pan though.

And yeah for Little House on the Prarie!

[title of show] on Broadway. it's time. believe.

maybe the anchor with the clock is signifying "On the Town"??
