The musical I look forward most to seeing is THE TIMES THEY ARE A CHANGING -- even though the buzz has been mixed, I think Twyla Tharp is talented enough to pull off anything. And the music isn't bad, either.

Debbie,
There's no denying Twyla Tharp's genius or Bob Dylan's timeless music. Most of the "mixed" buzz I've heard is over the carnival theme of the show, as well as the continued cast changes.
But I'm reminded of the mixed buzz that "Movin' Out" received in Chicago -- Tharp fine-tuned that show into a celebrated hit.
Appreciate your comments!
Steve
Michael,
Thanks for sharing the review from the Chicago Tribune. I had noticed it a week ago and thought of you and your enthusiasm for it immediately. With the positive press it has received, one can only wonder whether it will have East Coast-bound legs.
Steve
As a post script to my response to Debbie, I also wanted to mention that she has an interesting poll of her own going at:

Best Play
Best Musical
Best Actor/Actress
Song that will be remembered
Song that should never have been written
Actor we are most sick of seeing
Actor we want to see more of
Which theater has the worst seats
Which theater has the rudest ushers
Which theater has the best concession counter
Which theater is the best place to pick up people
What production should NEVER be revived NO MATTER WHAT
