| Hmmm interesting if it is legit, but I don't understand the need for a new script. If Polanski really wanted to, I'm sure he could get a London production up & running (simply by transferring the German show), if only he'd pull his finger out? No disprespect to Jim, but he doesn't really need to get involved, unless Polanski specifically wants changes to his (already written) English lyrics?
