Well, really the pairing of Bobby and Bela Zangler in Crazy For You is the same essential joke. Could have titled the musical Lend Me A Zangler. ;-)

There's also his Shakespeare In Hollywood, where the characters of Midsummer mingle with the film actors in Max Reinhardt's film of the play as he films it. Don't forget that later on, Ludwig wrote the book for an abandoned first attempt at a stage musical of An American In Paris, which was concepted to be about the filming of the original musical film, and featured a character named Hermia. (Not to mention the Gershwin score, of course.)

Plus ca Ludwig, plus c'est la meme chose? ;-)
