ooh LOVE the Ragtime idea. Just read the book, loved it and it just SCREAMS to be a musical. I would've loved to seen Mitchell and McDonald. Oh well...

Broadway Hokey Pokey: Put one show in, take one show out

Posted: 6/17/04 at 8:39am

I would throw out Mamma Mia, Beauty and The Beast, and The Lion King

I would throw in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (early because I canNOT wait to see Sherie Rene Scott), any new show by Jason Robert Brown, and Zanna, Don't! (which I heard is returning, but I want to see it now).

Ah, it's nice to dream.

Broadway Hokey Pokey: Put one show in, take one show out

Posted: 6/17/04 at 9:34am

With Aida and Millie leaving, I would like to see a really good revival of Promises Promises and The Witches of Eastwick (with Kevin Kline) to come in. When I saw Witches in London, they flying apparatus didn't work, so the end of the first act was a major letdown and quite bizarre. With a few tweaks and a new set design, I think the show could be a hit on Broadway.

Oooh! I LOVE PIPPIN! I saw half of a production and couldnt see the second half-because I was prepping for a show I was in then. so then I saw the filmed stage version. I love the show, it's so unique, but it might be hard to swallow.

OUT
42nd St.
Bombay Dreams
Little Shop
Movin Out
The Phantom of the Opera
Thoroughly Modern Millie
Wonderful Town

IN
A New Brain (The music is amazing)
Brooklyn (just because I can't wait)

Why I didn't axe Rent and Lion King...

Rent and The Lion King help the diversity of the Broadway audience...I think it's good that these two shows imparticular get people to b'way that otherwise maybe wouldn't consider going...

(if that makes ANY sense)

I would kick in BOMBAY DREAMS only because a lot of people are kicking out, and it was one of the more entertaining nights I've had at a production I haven't seen before.

I would kick out WICKED and 42nd Street because they were the two most miserable experiences I've had a theatre in the last year.
