It's too bad Bobby Steggert didn't have the opportunity to take it to Broadway. Could it be revived for off-Broadway?

I really enjoyed a production in London last year

I thought this show was sweet. The Chicago production is well sung and staged. The book and score are uneven but it's clearly a labor of love.
I found the most interesting characters in the show to be the partying gay photographer and the hard-working lesbian official. At times I wished the show was about them. Still the writers want an old-fashioned tragic romance and they give it to us with timid Stu and brash, self-loathing Mitch.
Stu's coming of age arc is messy. He goes from coward to playboy to romantic in the first act. In act two he makes a string of self-destructive choices. I would have liked a reflective song to clue me in to what was going on in his head. An 11'o clock number as it were.

I enjoyed seeing this in NYC several years ago. I'm surprised that Studio Theatre in DC has not produced Yank.
