Well, I know Americans like to think of themselves as worldly by asserting their influence everywhere thanks to Nike, Coke and the US Marines....how do you justify that short statement, Simon, when every one (except Aida) of the musicals listed is written in America, set in America, playing in America and is based on very American themes?
Don't hear much of South African Musicals, or Dutch, or Scottish, or Australian, or.... Worldly?
