As you all know, I'm directing a production A DOLL'S LIFE at The New Ohio Theatre (Christopher Street, NY) this January. It's running in rep with a production of Ibsen's A DOLL'S HOUSE and being produced by The Beautiful Soup Theater Collective -www.beautifulsouptheatercollective.org
We've been having such a wonderful time revisiting this lost flop. We've met so many wonderful people and are so excited to present it for everyone starting on January 26th, 2012.
As the Collective has continually grow since our little Off-Off-Off-Off-Waaaaaay-Off debut, we've been talking a lot about doing an annual musical. But the joy of this process has inspired us to make our yearly musical a famous flop. Not to dust it off and laugh, but to celebrate it and give it a new life from a new voice.
We'd love to hear more about your favorite flops: ones that you've never seen but would love a chance to, some you've seen but have been dying to see again, that score you've been aching to hear because you've worn out the recording...
I'm sure there are tons of threads about flops out there, but I think this is of a different nature! Looking forward to hearing about your favorites.
P.S. We've been thinking a lot about doing a production of HENRY, SWEET HENRY next season. But would love other thoughts and suggestions.
