*** YOUR MESSAGE ***

I read somewhere (USA Today?) that a video of "The Rum Tum Tugger" from the
musical `Cats' is in the works and that it should be out early next year.  
Anybody else heard anything on this?  Could this start a rash of theatrical
videos if it's successful?  I can imagine several musical numbers that would
look pretty good on MTV, but I'm afraid that if they did become popular,
playwrights and composer/lyricists might start gearing their material down to
that audience.
