| My thought is that Jim should be doing it as a small show that needs no financing. His need to do a big $15 million spectacle is what ruined DOTV. If it was about art he wouldn't have brought in Mikey Boy and re-written everything. He compromised artistic vision to get big financing. Money isn't necessary to make a great show.... keeping your artisitc integrity is... and I feel Jim will toss that out of the window to get the producers backing to put on a big spectacle instead of something with depth and meaning. > I think that the BOOH Musical could actually work better > as an arena show rather that a theatre show and that you > could run a story through the show with animation or > videowall footage reinforcing the storyline rather than > just the lyrics/acting and cut the talk.
