Talk:Stop the World – I Want to Get Off

Mime
The film, at least, is filled with mime, and uses a simple, plain circus set, costumes, and make up, dancing, announcements, and fragments of nursery rhymes and American songs and melodies. Are these features not mentioned because they have no reliable source? Sad. David Spector (user/talk) 19:05, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

The features you mention were present in the original West End production as well. They were probably not added to the article because nobody saw fit to add them. Be daring.

Unfortunately, this show is pretty well forgotten. It is built around numerous out-of-date stereotypes, and would require a significant re-write to be relevant to today's world. Although I am quite certain that this could be done, it either hasn't attracted attention from someone capable, or the Newley estate (or Bricusse himself perhaps) won't let it be touched. That's what's sad, IMHO. GodaiNoBaka (talk) 20:10, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
