What do you mean, "product of the 80s"? Products of the time itself, like Phantom and Cats, or homages to the spirit of the time?

There's a musical called "Back To The 80'S". It's a jukebox musical...it's also the worst piece of theatre i've EVER had the misfortune to see.

Three Guys Naked From The Waist Down. This musical tapped into the popularity of comedy clubs. It is about three comedians and how their lives and jobs intertwine.

"A Doll's Life"

and the number about canning fish is a kamp klassic.

Tobias...your question makes no sense and is totally confusing.

"Products of the 80's" -- shows produced in the 80's? (like CATS, CARRIE, INTO THE WOODS)?

"Products of the 80's" -- shows that take place in the 80's (like THE WEDDING SINGER)?

... makes me wonder if there were any musicals produced in the 80's about 'products.'

(other than 'industrials,' of course)

can 'doonesbury' be considered a 'product' ?
