So we have the London production starting up in a month. Supposedly Toronto is getting their own production this summer. And now we have Melbourne in March of next year.

Once "Avenue Q" and "Hairspray" closed, producers realized the task of selling a nonexclusive product might even be harder. If you weren't in a rush to see "The Producers" before it leaves Paris Las Vegas on Feb. 9, maybe it's because you saw it elsewhere.
You can look to the April arrival of "Jersey Boys" and say one of two things: "Don't they get the message? Broadway doesn't work in Vegas!" Or, "At least this one can benefit from what others learned the hard way."

Well, ran into this clip of Rick from back in the day. I don't know if some of you would remember this show that was on Nickelodeon back in the day called "Pete & Pete" (and if you don't then I feel old) but it was one of my favorite shows when I was younger. Rick on Pete & Pete
