"A Little Night Music" has less than two hundred notes, but each one is cherce......a Spencer Tracy reference
"Jerome Robbins Broadway" was a chop buster. It is all Jerry Robbins ballets. He directed West Side Story, Fiddler on the Roof, On the Town, The King and I, Gypsy, Peter Pan and more. It was three hours of non-stop blowing. It was a battle.
It is hard to name one show as the most difficult. Some consider West Side Story the most difficult. I don't know. It does require the lead player to play in more styles than most other shows.
Three Penny Opera is a very challenging show. Kurt Weill wrote shows that were almost operatic.
