You guys !!!!!!!! I know I'm fairly new to Broadway but I must have been living under a rock for me to have missed how amazing Sutton Foster was in anything goes ! I've always loved Patti Lupone's version but I can't get this one out of my head ! 

Are there any revival performances that you like more than the original

Pretty much any one of the 'Gypsy' revivals...

The current Color Purple Revival.

 

 

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

The recent SPRING AWAKENING revival from Deaf West.

The recent ON THE TOWN revival beats all the other revivals (even I'm too young to have seen the original.)

Roundabout's ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY was funnier and better sung than the original.

Strongly disagree (at least recording-wise). I think Merman is still the one to beat, with Lansbury and LuPone following her.

I prefer the 2003 recording of Nine, the actors fund recording of Hair and Dreamgirls in Concert. other than those I mostly prefer the originals.
