Violet. Even though it was Off-broadway. Also, don't forget Casper with Chita Rivera.

And wasn't there a Batman musical? I don't remember who wrote it though.

I think we can all sleep much easier knowing that HSM never made it to Broadway.

Wasn't Batboy planning a transfer and then 9/11 happened and plans were called off?

COLETTE with Diana Rigg. Supposedly, it wasn't half bad.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

And like Notre Dame de Paris, We Will Rock You never made it out of a disastrous Vegas run.

I admit, I did see Notre Dame de Paris in London. It was truly awful. I fell dead asleep in the second act. Dreaming and everything. Luckily, I was the only person seated in my row. It was about the 12th row of the orchestra. Seriously.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Turns out the lead was played by Veronica Vasquez, who is now married to Christopher Jackson from In The Heights. Small world.

Why let facts get in the way of a good story?

^ As long as we're taking that road, why don't we discuss how Tanz der Vampire never really made it to U.S. shores? (No, it didn't. Not by the above logic.)
