another thing to keep in mind is that it's not like folks aren't writing original musicals. those kids coming out of mfa programs, the majority of them aren't there to musicalize ROCKY. they're writing great, original, brave material no one, certainly no one on b'way, wants to touch because it doesn't come with a built in franchise.

besides the fact that there's just too many of them - most of them boring - this is what i object to most about this endless parade of movies to musicals.

the producers of if/then should be dancing on the aisles because of this piece. if i was them i'd make copies and paper the theater district with them.
