| What's stupid is for people like yourself to assume that the Neverland of now, is the same Neverland of then. Jim could've staged the old Neverland at any time off-Broadway or wherever at very little cost and be happy with the low audience attendance. However, I think he's wanting something big, something special and so are the backers and the producers of the show Neverland of old, although nice in concept is dull and boring and wouldn't work today. It needs a complete re-vamp, which like it or not, (and I'm presuming not) probably needs a new setting, new storyline and maybe even some new characters. Remember, this is Bat Out of Hell: The musical NOT Neverland, and although it might be based in part on Neverland, Neverland 30 plus years ago it aint gonna be, it can't be, if it's going to be successful.
