BroadwayWorld.com has learned that Ruthless! - The Musical may possible headed back to the stage in a new production if a reading, scheduled for September goes well as directed by Jason Moore. A casting call has been issued for the lead role of the 'bad seed' of child-showbiz terror - Tina. As no other parts are available for casting and the week's scheduling workshop is scheduled to begin shortly, one wonders who might already be cast.

Though last Sunday night was my first exposure to anything associated with the Disney triptych of made for television movies carrying the banner, High School Musical, it's my guess, judging from the enthusiastic reception the production received from an opening night audience loaded with young theatergoers, that fans of the series will not be disappointed. Paper Mill does their usual highly professional job, with a talented, energetic cast delivering Mark S. Hoebee's buoyant, quick-paced direction with gusto and singing attractively under music director Bruce W. Coyle. Denis Jones' choreography nicely fits the athletic and cheery requirements of the show's atmosphere and the design elements are sharply delivered via Kenneth Foy's kinetic set, Wade Laboissonniere's colorful, clique defining costumes and Tom Sturge's celebratory lights.

The Muny brings a bigness to their current production of THE MUSIC MAN that cannot be denied. And, with the beautiful unseasonable weather we've been experiencing, it's certainly a nice way to enjoy a cool summer evening under the stars.
