Eliot/Andrew Lloyd Webber/Trevor Nunn's early megamusical has never seized to break records is solved - 'Cats', the second longest-running musical in Broadway history, offers first-rate entertainment, and appeals to a broad audience: from quirky toddlers with short attention spans to paying adults who look for choreographed spectacles, and theatrical pyrotechnics in live productions.

Review - Pal Joey: I Could Rewrite A Book

In case this is your first time reading one of my reviews of a Broadway revival of a classic musical, allow me introduce you to my personal prejudice. I completely abhor the now very common practice of revising the book and messing with the score of any musical theatre piece after the authors are deceased. If a composer, bookwriter or lyricist is around to approve of changes, that's swell, but all too often their estates will allow anything from the sparse, but significant, tweaks to South Pacific to the wholesale revisions of The Pajama Game and The Music Man. Even more deplorable is the practice of letting these changes go uncredited, as was done in the three examples just cited, giving audiences no clue that what they are watching is not wholly the musical the original authors wrote.
