I really want to see LuPone do Hello, Dolly! for Summer Stars.

Definitely second Darling of the Day and Prettybelle.

I'd love for LuPone to do Hello, Dolly! at Summer Stars as well, but my biggest Summer Stars wish right now is David Hyde Pierce in The Music Man.

When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain. -Kad

I understand that they've already done PURLIE thanks to my friend below. Wish I could have seen it.

I like the idea of DHP as Hill...maybe with Sutton as Marion?

I haven't decided who I'd like as Marian, but Sutton is an interesting suggestion. I loved Kristin Chenoweth as Marian in what little of the ABC TV version, so maybe she'd do it.

I'd rather hear somebody with more of a legit soprano for Marion, Laura Benanti or Kelly O'Hara maybe.

Sutton sang (acapella), part of Til There Was You on Side by Side by Susan Blackwell, and it was quite lovely.

I agree with Dan, (my shikobit) with Lolita and Prettybelle. They are way passed due on a premiere, it's been almost forty years.

And garyl, they did a reading of It's a Bird...Superman at the York about two years ago with Shoshona Bean.

Is LOLITA allowed to be performed? I remember something about how it's not allowed to be. I could be wrong there.

I would also like to see Drood done. But that could be a fun show to do at Summer Stars.

Actually, Superman is in the works for a revival. They're writing a new book and trying it out in Dallas this summer.

Do they really read suggestions? I thought that was a no-no. I'd love to write them and suggest a Kander and Ebb season of "Flora", "The Happy Time" or "Zorba!" (I'd prefer "Zorba!") and "The Rink." Wouldn't that be swell?

I'm almost positive I had a survey in my Playbill for an Encores show asking what shows I'd like to see in the future.

My biggest wish was Finian's Rainbow, which I obviously got. (and then some!)

Hell, if I wanted to go full out, aside from those three for the regular season, I'd suggest "Woman of the Year" for Summer Stars with Allison Janney. THAT would be awesome.
