Is this the one that has been around for a million years or a new one?

I actually saw Gantry with Robert Shaw & Rita Moreno and have an 8 song demo of it. I remember nothing of it seeing as how it was about 50 years ago.

Is this the adaptation that David Bell directed at the Ford's Theater back in the 80s?

I have it on good authority that the powers that be are eyeing this for a broadway transfer.

Love the group number with the three phenomenal ladies! Seems a lot more lively than what I've seen / heard of the Shaw / Moreno attempt.

"I have it on good authority that the powers that be are eyeing this for a broadway transfer."

Everyone who has ever written a postcard to Mom hopes it will come to Broadway. They've been eyeing it for Broadway since the 80s. Which isn't to say it won't happen and I wish them the best of luck with it.

Read the novel sometime ago. The movie only takes up about 1/3 of it and it is very different .

My parents saw this at La Jolla in 1991 and were baffled that it never went to Broadway. They RAVED about it for 20 years and it was one of their all-time favorite musicals.
