“…the musical is dying because it cannot support an original Idea.” If this were true then the form has been dying ever since it was born 409 years ago, and it still ain’t dead!!! It isn't dead- it just smells funny... New-Wave Agit prop band Dead Kennedys once claimed "Punks Not Dead, Just Deserve To Die." The same holds true for the musical. IMHO, of course... El You're mah wahf now!
