Favorites:
The Human Comedy remains one of my favorite scores. Perhaps Galt McDermott's best.
My Favorite Year - that cast, that opening number.
Cry Baby - I think they released only the sub-standard demos, but this score is capital-F Fun.
LaChiusa's Wild Party - because it's a perfect adaptation presented perfectly. Duh.
Fortress of Solitude - which may not count as a flop, since it completed its scheduled run at the Public and never transferred
My Life With Albertine - again, something that simply didn't extend or transfer, but what a bananas complex score
