Posted: 8/25/10 at 3:01pmEncores is supposed to be devoted to "the American Musical". Therefore you won't see THE BOYFRIEND, which was a British show.

I think the new Cam Mac production of Les Mis will end up on Broadway after a US tour...
Not claiming any of this to be fact but I have a feeling Cameron regrets having reopened the show in New York so soon after it closed. Even more--calling it a major "revival" when it was more of a convenient extension of a just-closed national tour. Not saying it doesn't count as a revival but something tells me that label was slapped on as a marketing ploy and the revised (terrible) orchestration was supposed to be the work the show had undergone that would further justify its hasty revival.
Reviving the show AGAIN only 2 or 3 years after the so-called first "revival" is going to look like a joke and won't bode well for the show's reputation, and I say that as a huge fan of the show who can't get enough.

I was never able to see the recent revival...so I'd like it to come back. Just for me. That'd be quite nice.
Now all I see are cute boys with short haircuts in a maze of their own...

I'm sure I've said this before, but I'd like to see a revival of She Loves Me with Kate Baldwin as Amalia. I saw her in the Huntington production in 2008 and she was enchanting.
I also would love to see revivals of The Secret Garden, Grand Hotel and Big River.
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

I'd LOVE to see The Secret Garden revived. It has been too long.
Song and Dance (a guilty pleasure of mine) could use a revival. Although NOT like the most recent London one with those awful new songs. Ugh.

It would be nice to see the Hytner production of Carousel be revived. I saw that production 3 times and it was stunning.
I know the very recent revival of Ragtime was a flop, but I loved that particular production and wish it never had closed as quickly as it did.

Posted: 8/25/10 at 10:07pmI would love to see a revival of Candide. I doubt it would have the staying power for a long run but maybe a limited engagement? Perhaps a Lincoln Center production? I don't think her comedic acting is at all right for Cunegonde, but I can't help wanting to hear Kelli O'Hara sing Glitter and Be Gay.

lots of great ones mentioned already. i don't know if this qualifies since i believe it was off-broadway, but Little Shop of Horrors would be pretty great. i could see Matthew Broderick as Seymour. or is he too old for the part?

Posted: 8/26/10 at 5:48pmI can't help but feel that the last revival of Little Shop of Horrors demonstrated why this show does better in smaller Off-Broadway type venues. Another production may be able to be more successful at avoiding the over-blown, out of proportion feeling that the Broadway production had, but I'm going to remain a skeptic on that for the time being.
