I'm assuming with revisions.

And hopefully with a different lead, too.

Does Paul McCartney like wasting money?

Also the thread title is wrong.

PLEASE replace the very dull and uncharismatic leading man.

Apparently this is actually happening in 2016. Sometimes you have to ask yourself why god why?

Caught this at the Signature Theatre and loved it. Should be interesting to see how it evolves with Steven Van Zandt and Paul Shaffer on board.

We enjoyed it at Signature and thought it would be a natural for Broadway.

"Despite not being Broadway producers or even documentary filmmakers, the Berns children are learning the ropes."

 

Does being a documentary filmmaker somehow prepare one to launch a show on Broadway? What is that supposed to mean?!

Bizarre. This whole thing will last like 5 months, but will probably be a hit with regional theaters.

Zak, the lead, was fine.  But the writing?  Oh, my.  A seductive woman coincidentally named you-know-what inspires him to write "I Want Candy."  Really?  Shoehorning in all those songs must have been drudgery, indeed.  I can't see how this show could succeed unless it was drastically rewritten.

I agree, it surely needs a new book.
