What a shabby way to treat the original creators! I hope the Dramatists Guild fires off a letter of protest to Encores!
Blackwell passed away in 1995 and Lorick in 2016. Does anyone know if Krieger was invited to Encores! (or consulted about any revisions)?
(Encores! included an insert for the original musical & vocal arranger Harold Wheeler, so why not Blackwell, Lorick and Krieger, as well?)
For the record, ''The Tap Dance Kid'' is based on ''Nobody's Family Is Gonna Change,'' a novel by Louise Fitzhugh, best known for ''Harriet the Spy.'' |

Encores! Inside the Revival of 'The Tap Dance Kid' (2021), includes footage of Dule Hill, who had to drop out of the 2022 revival |
