Producers Fran and Barry Weissler have the Midas touch when it comes to revivals. Just in recent history they have been responsible for bringing Chicago and Grease back to Broadway. Look for the curtain to go up in early January or February. Speaking of revivals, there may be a resurrection of The Music Man .
Word is the producers are looking for a celebrity to anchor the production.
Look for Julie Andrews to return to Broadway next year. Because of her voice problems last year, the role Miss Andrews plays in the new musical comedy, The Big Rosemary , will be a non-singing one. After opening to rave reviews at the London Palladium in December 1994, the classic musical adaptation of Charles Dickens' Oliver Twist will wow Toronto audiences prior to a Broadway date yet to be announced. By all accounts, the star of the evening was Susan Stroman's choreography. For You and the recent revival of Showboat , this is Ms. Stroman's debut with the Royal National Theatre.
