That may be the case, but it also may depend who you are and what your pedigree is. And I can almost guarantee that the flexibility can become as stiff as my hamstrings if it is brought to their attention post hoc. "Ask, and ye shall receive." and all that.

Exactly. They have proven to be open to experimenting in very controlled situations, and then allowing that experiment to continue if it proves successful. Such as is the case with the Tony-winning production currently on Broadway, which began life at an out of town, avant-garde festival with limited ambitions.

And then there's the 1999 animated The King and I.

...which, if I recall, Ted Chapin has apologized for. ;-)

If you've never seen the 1999 atrocity that is ''The King and I,'' ShogunGino of the Infamous Animation channel eviscerates it in his recap (below).

In its efforts to be a kid-friendly animated movie, this ''King and I'' includes a sea serpent, a pet monkey and a royal black panther.

It also takes giant liberties rewriting the story: ditching Lun Tha (and replacing him with Prince Chululongkorn), and slapping on a happy ending that includes a hot-air balloon. Worst of all was the film's idea of comic relief: Master Little, a buck-toothed buffoon of a racist sidekick to the Kralahome.

The cast included Martin Vidnovic (as the King) and Miranda Richardson (as Anna, though Christiane Noll sang for her).

David Burnham, who sang as the Prince, told me: ''I only saw [this 'King and I'] once. I couldn't bear to watch it again.''
