`Ragtime` Redux on Broadway
Stephen Schwartz called it 'the best american Musical of the last 25 years.' In 1998, it won Tony Awards for Best Book, Best Score and Best Orchestrations, though it lost Best Musical to Disney's The Lion King. 'It,' of course, is Ragtime, a musical adaptation of E.L. Doctorow's book by writer Terrence McNally, lyricist Lynn Ahrens and composer Stephen Flaherty. And it is headed back to Broadway this fall after a successful restaging at Washington's Kennedy Center last spring. Marcia Milgrom Dodge is directing this version, and Kevin McCollum is the lead producer. The show begins previews October 23 at the Neil Simon Theatre with the opening set for November 15. This is a great musical, no doubt. And anyone who likes musical theater should be looking forward to hearing 'Journey On,' 'Make Them Hear You' 'Back to Before' and a whole lot more. I can't wait.

Who knows? Perhaps Angelina Jolie could have portrayed the slinky yet vulnerable Silk Spectre. Tom Cruise, in Collateral-style sociopath mode, might have made a passable Rorschach. Zack Snyder is talking about an early conception of Watchmen, his adaptation of the seminal Alan Moore graphic novel, in which the various characters were to have been played by A-list Hollywoodlanders. The idea was to use the celebrity status of the actors to mirror the obsessive public scrutiny experienced by Watchmen's 'masks', who exist in an alternate 1985 in which superheroes - of a sort - have been walking the streets for the past half ce
