So did they make changes in The Music Man?
They shortened the big dance sequences a bit, but it's been a long time since I've looked at them or played them, and I forgot to ask the music director about that. I think probably "Shipoopi" had the most dance music cut out of it. "Marian the Librarian" was more generously intact.
As for script, I had read somewhere that MTI grants productions blanket freedom to change the the Wa Tan Ye thing to any other patriotic thing, and that's what they did here. They rehashed a quick moment of "Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean" and moved on. Nothing else called itself to my attention.
