Which of these musicals would you prefer to see?

Which of the following classic musicals would you prefer to see performed (by an amateur company) in Perth? 1. Pal Joey 2. The Pajama Game 3. Lil' Abner 4. Bye Bye Birdie. Thanks :)

If the musical is anything like the film I could not recommend The Pajama Game. The music is pedestrian, the lyrics are lame, the characters are one-dimensional, the storyline is dull and 'off the rack', and there is little drama to impel the film along. Doris Day just went through the motions- she must have agreed to participate due to financial difficulties. Perhaps the musical is different, but the film was enough to dissuade me from auditioning for a role in this production. There's no way could I 'sell' such a damp squib to potential theatre-goers. Piranhas In Pajamas, now that's something I'd be interested in. At least Lil' Abner's got hillbillies.

Of the 4 listed: Pajama Game pops up every now and again, in fact I believe there is a production happening this year. Li'l Abner would be the toughest sell, as its major selling point is in "bringing the well-loved characters to the stage"... but who in Perth knows (or cares) about these characters??? Bye Bye Birdie and Pal Joey have not been done for AGES!!! Birdie I think is the more well known, but Rodgers & Hart seem to be NEVER done in Perth! (Pal Joey is one of my favourite musicals) I'd pick Birdie or Joey!

Pajama Game is on at Stirling Players in September 2013.

Thanks for that information. Helps me to shorten the list ;) "There are worse things than staring at the water on a Sunday".

Thanks heaps for your input Paul :) Pal Joey has been high on my list for years. "There are worse things than staring at the water on a Sunday".

Cheers for your feedback :) "There are worse things than staring at the water on a Sunday".
