Now this is what I've heard and anybody correct me if I'm wrong. It's still going to happen and it will most likely open in the Spring of 2006 and its being produced by Des MacNuff(Spelling is incorrect). The sign for the show is at Dodger.com

It was listed on IBDB.com as opening in April. I know they're not the most reliable place, but if they actually posted a date, you would think that there would be some reason. I hope it gets revived. Anika Noni Rose, come back to Broadway!

I think Des McAnuff is directing it, and Dodger is producing it. But the Dodgers have not been doing well at all lately, so who knows.

Yeah, with flops like "Dracula" and "Good Vibrations," I'm surprised that the Dodgers have two nickels to rub together.
