He's easily the funniest composer on Broadway. Anyone know what his next project is? I know he was going to do Shrek but Tesori took that over...
Last I checked, he was doing the Bruce Lee musical.
"- Bruce Lee: Journey to the West. A musical that follows the mythic journey of two Chinese legends: martial arts star Bruce Lee and the beloved Chinese warrior god, The Monkey King. The book is by Tony Award-winner David Henry Hwang (M. Butterfly) and the music and lyrics by Tony nominee David Yazbek (The Full Monty, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels) Bruce Lee: Journey to the West will be directed by Tony nominee Bartlett Sher (The Light in the Piazza, Awake and Sing.) Elephant Eye is targeting Bruce Lee: Journey to the West for the 2010-2011 Broadway season preceded by one or more out-of-town tryouts."

Interesting.
Sher is one of my favorite directors. I hope he uses his hometown Seattle for at least 1 of the out of town tryouts. I'm sure he's busy with South Pacific right now...
Probably composing more elevator music with lyrics.
