Somebody wrote the line "watch free gay porn" between the first two paragraphs. I have removed it. AlbertSM ( talk) 15:45, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
Replaced the artwork in the infobox per the discussion here. -- Ssilvers ( talk) 20:51, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
Obviously the article could function either way, but the flow of *origin of the plot, the plot, tryouts, reception* seems to work in these articles. For one thing, for these plays the commercial story is more of interest than the art work itself. Also, I find the plots to be a little more of a pill to swallow with all the names and songs and all. So getting things going with a section that is an easier read is a little nicer.
Of course, I don't know if the changes were made because they were beleived best for the reader, or because of acquiscence to critics. {{wink}}
Anyway...glad to see a star on this thing! {{congrats}}
Presumably, the character names are meant to be evocative of Romeo and Juliet and Carmen; however, the character in "Carmen" is Don José, not Don Juan. Presumably, this was an error by Hammerstein, but I'm at a loss in figuring out whether or how to mention it. Incidentally, for anyone interested in gleaning some info on the Chicago production, there's currently a Chicago playbill available on eBay at http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Rodgers-Hammerstein-ME-JULIET-Ray-Walston-1954-Chicago-Playbill-/401303319634?hash=item5d6f8ab452.
