Could "Schikaneder" Be The Next Must-See Broadway Show?

Right now, it is all about "Hamilton". But in a couple of years, could it be "Schikaneder" next? The latest musical by "Wicked" composer Stephen Schwartz is making waves in, of all places, Vienna, Austria.

Here’s a tip for Broadway’s theater owners: Get yourselves to Vienna to see the new musical by “Wicked” composer Stephen Schwartz.

My Viennese spies say it’s sensational.

It’s called “Schikaneder,” and while the title doesn’t exactly trip off the tongue, one source’s description is enticing: “It’s ‘Kiss Me, Kate’ meets ‘Amadeus’ with a score as lush and melodic as Stephen’s ‘The Baker’s Wife.’ This a major show.”

There ya go!
