Odds are good that I won't get back there to see it but the Goodspeed Opera House in Connecticut is staging a big, splashy revival (with some revisions) of the Li'l Abner musical. That show is a frequent topic of this website so I should mention that I'm hearing good things about it. Here's one review and here's another. From the former, we learn that though the show is set in the fifties, its Washington scenes include references to Jack Abramoff and John McCain, and that the gent who plays the evil General Bullmoose looks not unlike Dick Cheney. I have no idea how I feel about this. Back when I was briefly in talks to revise/update the book for a possible Broadway resurrection, the idea was to remove obscure references (like the line about Drew Pearson) but to avoid all anachronisms. I'm not saying that's the only way to do it, nor would I criticize their show without seeing it. Then again, in the show, Bullmoose does claim that "Progress is the Root of All Evil."
The Goodspeed website offers some goodies: A two-and-a-half minute video clip of scenes from the show, a five minute chat with director Scott Schwartz and a nice article on the property. You can also listen to two numbers from the original Broadway production.
Thanks to Mark J. Roy for reminding me about this. Wish I could get back there before July 2 to catch a performance. (I'd also love to get back to New York to see Billy Connolly's one-man show. If anyone who reads this site goes, send in a report.)
