Revivals Galore

I just finished getting through the Sunday New York Times and read an interesting article that talked about the economics of revivals, with particular reference to the increased frequency of certain shows coming back.  (For example, Gypsy and La Cage Aux Folles were back this year 5 years after the previous productions of each closed.)  I strongly recommend that all my readers look at this article because it explains a lot of how Broadway works in terms of what things are produced versus not and how that might affect what occurs come Tony time.
