Yes! They're already doing one with the Beatles's music. Leonard's is a natural one for a profoundly moving show of spectacular visuals and sound.

Yankovic? Since you obviously can't ever really leave us ['tis a good thing 8) ]... how about this??

Hey, Judith :D ~

Starting at the last, yes... rightfully so and I agree. Still, rightfully classic enough to warrant Cirque treatment. I've only seen advert snippets of their stuff... would dearly LOVE to see them for REAL [or not real, as their case of illusion may be :wink: ]! STill, onwards and upwards, with Leonard's work... WoW ~ what a vision with Jazz Police... wouldn't that SOUND just FILL the auditoriums with stupefying power!?! Then, the 'dynamics' of the uniform... oh geez... the whole thought of it is electrifyingly exciting!

I think you need, okay ought, to just stick this posting of yours in a nice envelope with a cd and send it on to the Soleil people :D .
Oh, it would really work amazingly well, especially since IYM is a narrative, a song cycle; it tells a story and, its echoes reverberate throughout history, from the Greeks and Trojans to the Beatles (LC refs the band on IYM).

Again ~ he sets himself apart from the rest! What more could Soleil ask??

Yes... you're right [duh :wink: ] that Leonard's, Lorca's [what I've seen], as well as Andrew's, work is very visual.

How about a blend of I'm Your Man and The Future ~ particularly, during these times... who else so long ago envisioned the fires on the road... the IUDs and car bombs?

What an amazingly POWERFUL show that would be... and certainly some members, if not all, already know Leonard's work... just gotta get with the right people!

Super-duper phenomenal idea, Judithia.
