I can't help but notice that the fairy stories, viz 'Peter Pan' (Darlington) and 'Sleeping Beauty' (Harbour) are both sellouts for the rest of their seasons, whereas the big musicals are struggling to get good houses. This will surely not go without attention by play selection committees for next year :?

Old was once New, back in the day...

Let us not totally rule out the QUALITY of a show. How many "old" shows don't get done because they're not any good? How many "new" shows, like "Bare", will soon become staples of the scene because they ARE good? Who thinks the great modern "masterpieces", like "Rent", will soon become as old hat as The Sound Of Music et al? Think on't! El "Proud and insolent youth; prepare to meet thy doom!"
