Saw it several times at the Majestic. Terrific production, great performances and songs. It had a solid run.

SUGAR toured for years on the bus-and-truck circuit – and it's had a solid representation in the regional theatres (no OKLAHOMA!, but solid.)

''Sugar'' (1972) got 5 Tony nominations, including Best Musical; Robert Morse won the Drama Desk, and it ran for 505 performances.

In 1998, nearly a quarter-century later, Tony Roberts and Morse reprised their comic duo ''The Beauty That Drives Men Mad.''

It was for the ''Leading Ladies'' concert in 1998, and it's a fun number from the Bob Merrill-Jule Styne score. (I also love ''Doin' It for Sugar.'')

In 2002-03, there was a revised tour version, called ''Some Like It Hot: The Musical,'' starring Tony Curtis as Osgood. Anyone see that?

I saw the tour when it came to the Chicago area in 2003. Curtis was really bad, but the show itself was enjoyable. Lenora Nemetz was quite good as Sweet Sue and almost stole the show.

I thought there was some hope for "Bombshell" by Shaiman and Wittman- Is that on the back burner?

Will it ever see the light of day?
