''Miss Spectacular'' is an unproduced musical with lyrics and music by Jerry Herman and additional lyrics by Steve Lawrence and Michael Feinstein. Steve Wynn had asked Herman to write a musical that would be presented at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas, possibly in 2000.〔() "Las Vegas Life", "Mr. Spectacular", January 2000〕 Wynn planned to install the musical in its theater for a long-term engagement, but when the property was sold to MGM the new owners had no interest in the project.〔''Las Vegas Sun'', Jerry Fink, October 18, 2006〕 In 2003, there were new plans for staging the musical in Las Vegas with Tommy Tune directing and the search for the leading lady done with a television talent show. There has been no further word on this project.〔http://www.playbill.com/news/article/77481.html playbill.com article, 1/23/03〕 Its plot focuses on a girl from the Midwest who heads to Las Vegas in search of fame and fortune as a chorus girl. Undaunted by the collapse of the arrangement, Herman gathered together a cast of Broadway performers, including Lawrence, Feinstein, Faith Prince, Christine Baranski, Debbie Gravitte, and Karen Morrow, and a full orchestra to record a concept album that was released on the DRG label in 2002. His score is reminiscent of such early work as ''Hello, Dolly!'' and ''Mame'', resplendent with old-fashioned, hummable tunes.〔http://www.playbill.com/news/article/71124.html playbill.com review of recording, 7/28/02〕 ==Song list== * "Overture" * "Miss What's Her Name 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Miss Spectacular」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
