In the "updated" version of Company, Bobby is bisexual.
Not Quite.
Bobby admits to having had a homosexual experience. That does not make him bi. (Many straight men have had same sex eperiences, it is NOT that uncommon!)
However, Peter (Susan's husband) tells Bobby he has has several experiences with other men (the new script doesn't state that this was the reason that Peter and Susan divorced but are still living together, but it offers a clue that wasn't there originally.) So, it would seem that Peter is bi.
Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!
I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com

umm....I can't believe no one mentioned Zanna Don't! (Zanna! - whatever it's called nowadays)
Granted it's supposed to alternative universe, but all but 2 characters are gay up until the finale pretty much...

Posted: 2/16/06 at 4:34pmI really want to say Lord of the Rings: the Musical, but only because I'm convinced that Sam Gamgee is gay.

I didn't know that about Mamma Rose. Anyhow this is going to be silly. She was a lesbian and she had daughters? Well...most lesbians do and probably back then she had to have a husband. But how come it's known she was a lesbian?
