Because I'm all sad about DRS closing, I want it to be revived. Except not. I'm just sad.
And Sweeney Todd for your second question.

Anything Goes- that would be AMAZING if they revived it :)
and um.. Idina Menzel as Reno and Laura Benanti as Hope? well, that'd kinda make my life. hehe. (not even just because I love them both- I honestly just think they'd be amazing in the roles haha). But even if not that casting, it's just in need of a revival and new cast recording
I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.

In addition to your casting, Stokes to play Stan. Would love to hear him do The Other Half Of Me & Fickle Finger Of Fate

I also thought of Stokes in the Kiley role. But who's out there for the Morrow role? Ana Gasteyer?
PS: Mr. Roxy. I loved your choice of Ice Cream. I know that place in Florence!

I agree with West Side Story and add to that:
1. They're Playing Our Song
2. On a Clear Day You Can See Forever
3. Funny Girl
4. Oliver! (What happened to the Mackintosh one...where did it go?)
5. Evergreen

I completely agree with the calls for a West Side Story revival. Also Miss Saigon, Parade, and Anything Goes. My new addition to the list is She Loves Me.
And I think the Trevor Nunn/Susan Stroman revival of Oklahoma! is better than the original...ah...Hugh Jackman. =)
