haha.
no, I don't think we will ever run out of music. one, because there are so many great ideas out there that some new composers will pick up. and two, later on, musical taste will differ a bit and a new style of Broadway will come out and be a great hit. one example is Rent.
the other is DRS. Yazbek took ideas from many different genres and put a whole musical together. Funk, romantic ballad, swing, jazz waltz, 2-step, samba, Viennese waltz, Latin song (not in latin, but a latin feel), rock ballad. I mean, that is incredible!
musicals will never die.

-Dre- You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel.
