message: This musical is now being produced in New York by the Public Theater under the new title, Road Show. Does the article need to be renamed to Road Show (musical)?

replies: text: Jean, I'm with you. Let's wait until the official opening in case previews short circuit--not that I'm expecting that. Better safe than sorry. --RayBirks (talk) 23:59, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Right, I'd be even more conservative: Don't rename it until the show under the new name is better established than under the old name, for instance if it runs for many months off-Broadway or moves to Broadway.  The authors might revert to the old name.  Road Show is actually a weaker brand name, because it has another meaning in showbusiness, whereas Bounce is a fanciful term as applied to a show. -- Ssilvers (talk) 03:45, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The name Bounce is not likely to return because that song has been dropped from the show. More specifically, the lyrics of the song "Bounce" have been dropped, but the tune is retained with new lyrics. The name "Road Show" was chosen since it reflects the different "roads" that lead characters Addison & Wilson Mizner take. The similar meaning to the show business term is most certainly deliberate: The original conception of the show was to be similar to a vaudeville show, though this has evolved somewhat. --RayBirks (talk) 05:14, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Musical numbers

message: I assessed this as Start class, but it looks to be almost C-class.  Is the plot summary a summary of the current plot, or the earlier Bounce plot?  It should reflect the 2008 plot but note the major changes from the 2003 version.  Response section could use a comment about other reviews and about the level of box-office success of the production.  These additions, and the additions of which characters sang which songs would bring the article up to C-class.  -- Ssilvers (talk) 15:49, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I increased the assessment to C-class. -- Ssilvers (talk) 04:07, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
