Also, it would be extremely challenging, in terms of the design. How would they stage the bits when Rose rescues Jack or when they're running from the deluge and so on? Or when the main hall gets flooded from all around? The budget would be absolutely massive, I imagine. Also, it would be harder than usual doing this version when the other version onstage won Best Musical at the Tony Awards.
