Based on what Jim's described, there are not many unknown producers who would pull a show off like this. It would have to be someone big like Cameron Mackintosh, Really Useful Group, Disney Theatricals or Cirque Du Soleil. Actually, when Jim first announced the project I immediately thought Cirque were the producers.
Based on what Jim's described, I wouldn't be surprised if this is the most expensive stage-spectacle ever attempted yet. I'm not talking a paltry $20 million, but something like Hollywood, $50-$70 million. It's not impossible. Besides, wasn't Jim offered $200 million for record producer on BAT III? Or was that a silly story someone told me?
As for the "Batman" songlist, YES, PLEASE!!
