| This is a great discussion! I think for a new musical in the vein of the Golden Age to be successful, it would have to be, like any other musical, just the right show at the right time. What about a Golden Age style show about the world we are living in now? R and H did it with South Pacific in 1949, why not now? I agree that the recent revival of Dolly showed that people are game if the show is done right. I was surprised how many people I knew, all regular to semi regular theatre goers, who saw the show for Bette, and had never been exposed to the material, but absolutely adored the show. |
