With it's truly amazing score and timeless story, this incredible musical closed far too soon.

It my favorite show in the world. They are doing a revival of it here at Kennedy Center. I cannot wait.

2nd broadway show I ever saw, with the original cast, and it is still my favorite to this day.

Any word on the Kennedy Center cast? Mu boyfriend has just recently discovered this show- it would be great to take him to see it live.

The best show I've ever seen, hands down.

I haven't heard any word on casting for the Kennedy Center production, but I'm unbelievably excited about it.

It's wonderful news that the Kennedy Center is putting on a production. I personally feel it deserved a better fate. I hope it gets revived often so new generations can experience it in all it's glory.

I listen to the Original Cast Recording often and I'm magically transported back to the time this show opened the Ford Center for the Performing Arts (since renamed the Hilton) on a newly refurbished but not-as-of-yet finished 42nd Street.

I think it's the only show ever written without one throwaway lyric.

It's too bad the producer had such a bad sense of timing and the mentality of a
second-story man.
