The trouble is that too often the original versions are pulled from availability. I think that's unlikely to ever happen with Company, but I don't think it's impossible.

I've rarely seen revisions that I thought were improvements, even those that were done by the original author(s). Once in a rare while, yes, but most of the time, no.

Sondhiem revisions to his shows

For someone who is such an unmatched genius in his original goes at things, I have rarely if ever seen a revision Sondheim has made to try or that he has used as the replacement version (and only one available for future productions) that is an improvement. If anything, most are downgrades from his original. It's quite odd and frustrating.

Can you think of any Sondheim revisions that are as good or better than what they replaced?
