Would a revival work at this point in time? This score is my personal favorite that Yazbek has composed. The original had a good run of 627 performances.

Feels too early to revive a show that wasn't a hit originally. It would need megawatt stars and some rewrites.

There's also a gender-reversed movie remake coming out in 2019, with Anne Hathaway in the Lithgow role, Rebel Wilson in the Butz role, and Curious Incident's Alex Sharp in the Sherie Renee role.

Not a very timely story these days though.

The show was bad enough the first time.

Have all those unemployed steel workers found new jobs?

Did you know that every day Mexican gays cross our borders and unplug our brain-dead ladies?
