- A Bart Sher directed Ragtime
- The KC Music Man to transfer
- Follies to cross the pond and take the Imperial, even for a limited run
- Guys and Dolls at the Shubert

MAME.

Hands Down.

 

In terms of plays - more Tennessee Williams, Edward Albee and some Neil Simon.

Let's get a revival of something treasured - maybe Lost In Yonkers or Broadway Bound - and there was talk of a revival of a show I never saw called Rumors.

Can we do that?  Can we please revive some Neil Simon and MAME

STREET SCENE and THE GOLDEN APPLE and THE MOST HAPPY FELLA.

And, yes, of course, MAME. If they can find somebody for the lead who has the outsize personality and the vocal chops. No, Catherine Zeta Jones can't sing it.

Actually, Meryl Streep would make a pretty fabulous MAME. Yes, I know she is technically too old, but she has an ageless quality. If she can play half her age under the cruel eye of the MAMMA MIA camera, she can handle MAME on stage.

Not that I think she wants to commit to a long run.

As for plays, I'd like to see British playwright Claire McIntyre's LOW LEVEL PANIC. It's a play from the 1980s, but very #METOO. 3.5 juicy roles for women (and that's the entire cast so it wouldn't have to run years to recoup). I'm not sure this would be a revival since I don't believe it ever played on Broadway; but it's been done all over the English speaking world.

Also, the Taper did an excellent revival of ZOOT SUIT a couple of years ago that could easily be remounted on Broadway.
