Spoiler warning?
editDoes this site need a spoiler warning? It goes straight into the plot. David Duchovny 06:34, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- The musicals' project consensus was that if the musical is finished with its original run, no spoiler warning is necessary. -- Ssilvers 19:54, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Copied?
editIf I'm reading this right, the bulk of this article is copied word for word from another site (whose reference is at the bottom of the page). I don't have time to check this now, but if that's true, we should simply link to the original without the wholesale copying. The article needs editing! -Phoenixrod 09:08, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
Is this an English Musical?
editAlthough the London production was before that on Broadway, Mandel, Harbach, Caesar and Youmans were all Americans. Furthermore I have found a reference in Kurt Gänzl's "The Musical - A Concise History" to a production at the Harris Theatre Chicago in May 1924 of an earlier, unsuccessful version of the work.

- I'd say if it was written by Americans, it's an American musical. --AMK1211 04:23, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
Please add the info about the 1924 production to the article! -- Ssilvers 04:34, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
- As noted in Curse of the Bambino, the play's predecessor was a non-musical version called My Lady Friends, which debuted on Broadway in December of 1919. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 23:47, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
- Then why is this article written in UK English, e.g., favourite? [unsigned question added by 192.158.61.139]
- It premiered in London. Whenever it's a close question, I prefer UK usage, since this is an international encyclopedia, and the encyclopedia is often accused of being too US-centric. I am an American. -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:55, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
