I dislike it when some titles say "new musical" and others simply say "the musical". Either way you look at it, it is still consider a new musical (hint: never been done or presented before on a Broadway Stage). Either just leave it as "the musical" or have the "new" for a short time and later change it... RENTBOY was right, eventually "The New Mel Brooks musical" will be worn out when it is still mentioned that way when it's 2055...LOL
