I hope they revive this!
I'd love a "Sophisticated Ladies" revival, but not THAT one. Low-energy, sloppy steps, and off-key singing. No thanks!
The original was incredible! Some of the best dancing ever on Broadway.
Just watch the DVD, filmed during the original run, and you'll see what it can and should look like.
Here's Teri Klausner (the original matinee "Evita" herself!) from the Broadway run, singing (and dancing) "Hit Me With a Hot Note."

And Phyllis Hyman (peerless!) with the full company doing "It Don't Mean a Thing ..."
This oughta curl your socks!

Teri is truly amazing, a voice like no other!
I saw this last year at an equity theater. it was just ok. it was enjoyable but not good enough for me. just my opinion
