"In the Heights set in Flushing, NY with an all Asian cast."
Wow. You'd really understand why Nina is afraid to tell her parents she lost her scholarship with that version.

I have legitimately always wanted to do a concert production of Cats, without cat costumes and someone very drily reading stage directions like, "And then the cat flies up to cat heaven on a tire."
And the only choreography would be stagehands dressed in black moving around actual cats during "Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats".
I just want people to focus on how stupid the show actually is.

I like the Sound of Music idea, but let's use the "Climb Every Mountain" ending, with the last big choral line punctuated by gunshots.
"Till *BANG* You *BANG* Find *BANG* Your *BANG* DREAM!! *BANG*"
