Am I mistaken, or are there two different musicals named Parade? I know there's one by JRB, but isn't there a different one?

There is the musical review:

Sketches by Frank Gabrielson, George Sklar, Paul Peters, David Lesan; Lyrics by George Sklar, Kyle Crichton, Paul Peters.

And the musical:

Book by Alfred Uhry; Lyrics by Jason Robert Brown; Music by Jason Robert Brown.

There was also a ballet named "Parade" by Satie and Cocteau that played at the Met a few seasons ago.

The first being a completely forgotten flop musical revue from the 30s that starred Eve Arden.

There was a Parade that starred Charles Nelson Reilly, too. Is that the same one with Eve Arden?

Here are the only two shows named "Parade" that have ever been on Broadway:

Charles Nelson Reilly was 4 years old when the Eve Arden revue played on Broadway, so no, he wasn't in it.

Wasn't there also something called "Jerry Herman's PARADE" or am I making this up?

I just googled it and apparently there was an off-Broadway revue in 1960 called "Jerry Herman's Parade" which starred Herman, Reilly and Dody Goodman.

Wow. Oops, didn't see the year. *Smacks self upside head* I don't know what I was thinking. *Blushes and hides*

Ah, I guess that was what I was thinking of... I was browsing random websites looking at cast recordings, this morning, and found it.

I'll shut up now.
