The third paragraph of 2018 Revival is currently as follows (no citations):
Having watched the show three times, this is not what ended up in production. I'd like to change to:
As with the previous version, I can provide no citations to back this up, so am posting it here first for discussion -- Alice Purcell ( talk) 14:22, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
Why some revivals haven't been shown here, like for example South Korea? EricaJ4416 ( talk) 10:11, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
I've noticed a couple times people have added a 2020 production of a revised version of Chess på svenska that was done in Oslo to the "Major Differences" section. I deleted it the first time, as I didn't think it was notable enough to really be considered a different "version" to the Swedish production (it is "Differences between the major versions," after all). Obviously this is subjective, so maybe I made the wrong choice, but, since the plots are so similar (the description of the differences even admits that it's "mostly similar to the Swedish version"), and it's not really as notable as, say, the concept album and the British version, I still question that it's included. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kanji dc ( talk • contribs) 19:56, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Having read synopses and listened to recordings of both shows, the scripts are actually very different, and it's ambiguous to which the plot summary refers.
This has in fact been addressed before: according to this talk page, the current passage, which reads:
Was changed from:
The current one is the plot of the London Coliseum production, whereas the old one is the plot of the Kennedy Center production.
This needs to be addressed, as it's just false that the two are the same. Kanji dc ( talk) 18:42, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
I'd like to see a discussion of why Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus, and Tim Rice never collaborated again on another musical. Greg Lovern ( talk) 00:49, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
