| I saw a revival of Mack & Mabel in the West End in 1996. It starred Howard McGillin and had an 8 month run. My feeling at the time was that the production needed more razzle dazzle, more bigness. But there have definitely been successful revivals of Merrily--the one that Maria Friedman directed at the Menier transferred to the West End and got the best reviews of any West End Sondheim production ever, and it eventually played the Huntington in Boston. |
