Do you think they'll give Roger Bart some Wilder-esque frizzy hair? I think it's a given that he'll have a mustache. I also remember a while ago, Mel Brooks made it seem as though he wanted everything in B&W (make-up, costumes, sets, etc.). But if the new logo tells us anything, (see it at the Paramount Theatre site) it seems like everything's in color. It looks like Shuler Henseley's gonna be "Frankenstein green," too.

I remember seeing Edward Gorey's DRACULA on Broadway years ago. They pulled of the black and white gimmick flawlessly. (And who could forget the joy of trying to find the one tiny spot of red in each scene? The rose? The glass of wine?)

Like the little girl in Schindler's List. Beautiful imagery.
