It is always baffling to me, the things that history books don’t teach us. How can something so important within the history of our country be overlooked? This was one of many conversations I had last night after attending the opening night performance of Suffs in Cincinnati.

Perhaps the most well-known instance of a show changing titles during the development process belongs to the groundbreaking 1943 phenomenon, Oklahoma! The Rodgers and Hammerstein musical that changed the art form in terms of subject matter, integration of elements, and more was originally titled Away We Go! when it went out of town for a New Haven tryout. Oklahoma! is far from the only instance where a musical changed its title along the development road.
