I wouldn't consider CONTACT a jukebox musical. It's a play with music and dance. I didn't have a problem with it winning a Tony though. It was the best show that season.

And the only rock/pop music is in the last sequence in the club. Not enough to qualify it as a jukebox score, IMO.


To me, the show is a very expensive dance recital, with the boombox hooked up to a Broadway sound system, and done in a theatre instead of a dance studio. ;-)
