You should have a None of the Above selection.

I'd like to see a revival of Miss Saigon. But I'd like it to be reimagined in some fashion.

Like the idea of a Donna Murphy Mame with Kristen Johnston as Vera.

Um, how about none of them.

Broadway, simply put, is a money making machine. It stopped being Art almost shortly after it was invented. So the musicals that made money in the past don't work so much today, because different things make money today. If you revived an old musical, it wouldn't be about the musical, but about the transplanted movie star playing the lead, the director's "twist," and other variables that have nothing to do with why the musical was written.

Broadway Sucks!

I want to see THE ROAR OF THE GREASPAINT-THE SMELL OF THE CROWD...with JOHN LIFHGOW doing the CYRIL RITCHARD part and am open to suggestions for the ANTHONY NEWLEY part...this show deserves more viewings and has a GREAT score...

Hmmm...I would go with On the Twentieth Century before any of those choices.
