"Sayonara"
No, nobody would ever go with that title. It would close on Opening Night -- or open on closing night.

The Good Old Bad Old Days was originally supposed to come to the Palace under a different title. For some reason, it never did. I have th LP of the London Cast & it is quite enjoyable.
Another show I would like to see
A Wonderful Life

Nymph Errant -- the only Porter score never to have had a Broadway outing. There's a studio recording and the score is a gem.

Agreed with Nymph
The score is an undiscovered delight.

eventually or even now The Drowsy Chaperone will be a good example. It's a great show but it didn't catch on.

WINDY CITY - terrific London musical based on "The Front Page". The score is one of my all-time favorites.
It has had at least one stateside production, but this should be a natural for Broadway.

Not Necessarily on broadway, but a musical I'd like to see get a second life is The Day the World Went Queer.

it's fairly well known isn't it? Plus, it would never work on broadway, its too bizarre. It would have to have stunt casting to be successful, and its too good of a show to be subjected to the awfulness that is stunt casting.
I've always wanted to direct a production of BB that has the emotional tone of a Greek tragedy. let the people laugh for a while and then rip the still beating heart from their chest and squeeze the blood over their heads.
