Personally I would like to see Bye Bye Birdie, Follies (is that transfer from City Center definite?), Funny Girl and A Little Night Music.

Also, Anything Goes starring Donna Murphy as Reno Sweeney and Hello Dolly with bernadette!

Ditto Ragtime. And I want Lea Michele to be Evelyn Nesbit. Does anyone else see this?

Evita. With Orfeh as Eva. She'd be BRILLIANT.

Oh, and I was just saying to someone how it'd be great to have a Dreamgirls revival right about now.

EVITA
Maybe too early for right now, but JEKYLL & HYDE with some of the new songs from the concert tour last year and some of the songs originally cut from the other touring productions.

"And I want Lea Michele to be Evelyn Nesbit. Does anyone else see this?"

No, not at all. I can't even imagine it.

I'll jump on board with RAGTIME, but...

HELLO DOLLY with Bernadette!

I would also love to see a revival of Flora the Red Menace. GREAT score! I bought the CD for like 3 bucks at a used CD store and I LOVE it!

RAGTIME

Brigadoon (because I've never seen it live)
Lady in the Dark (NEVER been done except for Encores!) -- There must be SOMEONE out there who could do justice to Liza (maybe Bernadette Peters) -- any suggestions? Please don't bring up Donna Murphy -- the show is too star-dependent and her attendance track record has not been very good.
Rags (that score!!!!!)
Pal Joey (Curtis Holbrook for Joey?)
Where's Charley? (paging Nathan Lane or Norbert Leo Butz)
Camino Real
Mourning Becomes Electra
Auntie Mame (play, not musical with Charles Busch)

Dreamgirls

Merrily We Roll Along

[TheaterBaby]

Posted: 12/30/07 at 3:51pm

Funny Girl
Mame (starring either Christine Baranski or Beth Leavel)...or maybe both of them.
Anything Goes
My Fair Lady
The Boyfriend (It's never actually been on Broadway, but it should be)

I love Hello Dolly, and I love Bernadette Peters; but I think the combination would be a mistake.

If we're talking about the same show, The Boy Friend was on Broadway in 1954 with Julie Andrews. It ran for a year or so.
