I just learned that Signature Theatre is doing a Kander & Ebb series this spring. I'm particularly interested because it includes their adaptation of The Visit, a play which has the distinction of being the only play I ever read in German and liked. (Hmm, Durrenmatt was actually Swiss, if I recall correctly, and part of why I liked it is that I had previously read it in English so actually understood it, unlike most of what I read in German.)

I do wish they were selling a subscription to the three show series since I'd like to see the other two (Kiss of the Spider Woman and The Happy Time) also. I will inevitably just go ahead and get tickets for all three, but it would be less effort if they had a package deal.

"The Visit" is one of the few remaining Kander/Ebb shows that haven't made it to Broadway yet. I read about it in one of their book, so I hope it transitions.

I've listened to the music from the other two. "The Happy Time" I love -- I can just picture the show in the mind as the music unfolds. "Kiss of the Spider Woman" is about the only Kander/Ebb show I've never taken too: it is dark and brooding... but I would still love to see a production.

I'm envious. Sounds like a great season.
