Other then ANNIE, DROOD, and CINDERELLA (which may or may not be considered a revival), are there any other musical revivals being talked about for next season?
Now this is getting interesting. The list of possibilities: ANNIE, CINDERELLA, THE MYSTERY OF EDWIN DROOD, SWEENEY TODD, MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG, INTO THE WOODS and ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY.
Remember whatever ENCORES is presentin always has a chance...though that may have changed after the financal disastor that FINIANS RAINBOW was , although i loved the production. Dont forget about the 60th annivsery production of THE KING AND I
I'd be ok if King and I didnt happen! And I agree, while i LOVE all the sondheim in the world, Merrily should wait if both Sweeney and Woods are coming in.
Though I'm not really a fan of Lea Michele, I think the producers are going to wait until she becomes available before mounting the Funny Girl revival. She's a name, she can sing, she's been on Broadway, and has a built in fan base from Glee. It's just a shame she can't act...
Well, the auto-tune helps a lot. She's a good (re: popular) singer in the way Justin Bieber is a good (re: popular) singer, which isn't saying very much.
