I don't know, but I have been saying this for years: there should be a revival in the works soon. It is such a good show.

<--- the set of A Midsummer Night's Dream that I was assistant stage manager for during the 2007 season at the STNJ outdoor stage.

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.

I adore this show, and I worship the Gershwins.

That being said, I can't think of a worse idea than making it into a movie.

There's a great PBS video of Crazy For You (I think it's at the Paper Mill Playhouse)...anyways, it is such a great production and is filmed well.

"Now she wants to know WHY, if I'm so fabulous, I would WANT to take care of her child.....I answer with as much filigree and insouciance as I can muster, trying to slightly cock my head like Snow White listening to the animals. She, in turn, is aiming for more of a Diane-Sawyer-pose, looking for answers which will confirm that I am not there to steal her husband, jewelry, friends, or child. In that order."

Girl Crazy has been filmed at least twice in some incarnation or other although the most recent was in about 1965.

Crazy For You was shown on PBS Great Performances. They filmed the Paper Mill production that used Stro's original choreography.
