It doesn't have to be a small show to retain artistic integrity, and let's hope the producers don't meddle too much?
The fact that it's Steinman mixed with Peter Pan mixed with Bat Out Of Hell, cries out for something epic?
Jim's philosphy has always been OTT, so I can't see him going small scale with this.
If the team of Scarfe/Brickman/Fisher are still on-board I think the show will be spectacular AND classy.
No need to comment on the song quality, only questions remain what direction the book/script has gone in, and who the director will be.

I would like to think Jim learnt a few lessons from the DOTV debacle, not to be repeated on Bat?
