The Honeymooners, which is a bit of a shame. It has great songs.

There has been talk and talk that they were writting a Betty Boop musical, once Kristin Chenoweth was attatched, I believe, and it still hasn't happened.

Disney is still too chicken **** to bring The Hunchback of Notre Dame over here.

Sondheim was working on a Peter Pan adaptation at one point, but I don't know much about that. He also expressed intrest in making Groundhog Day into a musical, then brushed it off, saying that a younger, modern composer should do it.

Zanna Don't! was going to have a transfer, retitled just ZANNA starring John Tartaglia. I HATE this never happened.

Others:
Dr. Dolittle
Zorro, The Musical
Gilligan's Island: The Musical
Happy Days

I think it is a travesty that CHILDREN OF EDEN has not been on Broadway yet. Such a gorgeous show.

There have already been two flop Cyrano musicals on Broadway. Surely we don't need another.

"Dorian". Saw it 3 times in Denver with Matt Cavanaugh. At least have the promo cd.

My friend saw "Rebecca" in Vienna and got me a program (Which I can't find!) He raved about it.
