When Hal and Stro talk, you should listen.
I was lucky enough to witness the first Hal Prince and Susan Stroman collaboration firsthand, when I was the Associate Company Manager on the mammoth Show Boat at the Gershwin Theater.
It was a genius collaboration.
The two of them are at it again, co-directing the new musical, Paradise Found, which opened on Wednesday, May 19th, at the Menier Chocolate Factory in London-town.
H&S gave an interview with The London Times recently that has more nuggets of Producing and Directing wisdom than in all of my blogs combined. They talk about flops, financing and why they're debuting this show across the pond.
Read it here.

Yep! You are right! I was referring to their first bway collab, but I should have been more specific. Nice trivia answer, A. Scott!
