NYTimes.com: "Ken Bloom and Frank Vlastnik, authors of the newly revised “Broadway Musicals: The 101 Greatest Shows of All Time,” answered readers’ questions about Broadway seasons past, present and future. Here they take a look at Broadway’s history: the best, the overrated and the overlooked."
I think the history of Broadway is an interesting and sometimes obscure history that could be very helpful in this era. Looking at the trends of what worked what didn't work, and why, is an important think to examine before producing a new show, as it could save your production. I agree with these these two men on their definitions of best verses great. Especially the comment about Cats being very overrated. I agree wholeheartedly with their assessment.
