"I have to say, I'm pretty tired of bio-musicals, because the overall arc of the story is exactly the same. The specific details may change, but it's always the same plot."
That's sort of the point from the producer's perspective, people want to know what they're getting in advance, etc.
Now t/d/b/a haterobics on here.

True but IMO Broadway has had enough of these and I prefer original songs.

Posted: 2/19/14 at 1:48pmI think Frank Wildhorn should write a bio-musical about Stephen Sondheim. All original songs!

One thing I discovered from this thread. "One less bell to answer" was written for Keely Smith and what a wonderful recording it is...
I loved the 5th Dimension. But, actually like the Blood, Sweat & Tears take on Laura Nyro songs better.
