I'd love for them to do "Into the Woods" as a Summer Stars production, but that's for totally selfish reasons...

[husk_charmer]

^ It's too easily revived.

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 1/28/10 at 10:58am

So? They just did FOLLIES a few years ago and that was revived 6 years before.

Encores may not openly solicit suggestions, but they do read them.

However you have to write to them because they don't cruise the message boards except maybe after a production.

Jordan-
I said EASILY not RECENTLY. Follies is not an easy show to sell. Into the Woods is. Woods is more likely to get commercial revivals.

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 1/28/10 at 11:10am

Oh, I read recently. Nevermind. :)

But I do think that's the type of show they could do wonderfully in the summer with a collection of really great names and sell out the house.

Jordan-
Probably, but I'd rather them stick to some of the lesser-done shows.

So far, every Summer Stars show they've done has been easily revived!

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 1/28/10 at 2:34pm

"So far, every Summer Stars show they've done has been easily revived!"

Exactly. For the Summer Stars series they can't exactly do OH, BROTHER. It has to be a recognizable show that everyone knows so it can sell for a while.

No one else will ever, ever, ever agree with me. But I'd love it if Encores did (predictably) The Scarlet Pimpernel. It's my favorite show, and I've always wanted to see a live professional production.

"Jordan-

But the point of Summer Stars is to do a popular show with popular names. Gypsy, Damn Yankees, and The Wiz are not really lesser-done shows.
