Of course they're a bit long in the tooth for these roles, and it would be suicidal for a producer to cast them because then it becomes THEIR star vehicle, and they'd be impossible to replace.

But I don't think Andy Karl & Michael Urie would sell many tickets. Maybe I'm wrong.

I did see the original 'SUGAR' when it first opened, and was very disappointed (especially with Bob Merrill's lyrics.) Then I saw it a second time before it closed, and enjoyed it very much.

It's now called 'SOME LIKE IT HOT, the musical' I believe, since it was mounted in London years ago for Tommy Steele. And that new title tune is terrific.

But two shows with the same title? I guess, as with 'GONE WITH THE WIND,' it happens. (Though that was called 'SCARLETT' in Japan, originally. I think.)
