The Show It Is A-Closin

Not everyone out there is into musical theatre, but I am. It brings me great joy to bring news of a new musical about to close after less than a month: The Times They Are A-Changin'. The music of Bob Dylan as interpreted by Twyla Tharp and a cast of Cirque du Soleil-esque dancers dressed as clowns, dogs, and other bizarre things has happily gone the way of other massive flops after 35 previews and 26 regular performances (by closing night on November 19th). Carrie: The Musical comes to mind (which got legendarily terrible reviews as well, one from the inimitable Joel Siegel).

The Best Week Ever posted a clip excerpting 30 seconds of Like a Rolling Stone as it was performed on The View. If the iFilm link weren't dead, I could point you toward the whole thing. I'll update later if I find it.
