Wildabeast Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Don't forget Sky Ryders' version in 1987, and BD had an interesting take in 1998 where they weaved the storyline with Romeo & Juliet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky '87 was ballsy, to be sure. Garfield '84 was still in people's minds. Rather than copying, Sky took a unique, COLORFUL staging approach to the show, and it worked. And I've been saying that they led the way for Cadets' Angels/Demons show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky's version in '87 was fantastic..totally different from anything the Cadets did...and I loved them both... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
