* CreatorBacklash: According to some reports, Creator/TimBurton was supposed to direct this musical, as it was supposedly based on his film adaptations. When it was cancelled, Tim has since played down his invovment with the show, as in one interview, he admitted that he was indeed offered to direct the show, but his first thought was "[[ThisIsGonnaSuck Oh no]], [[OnIce Batman On Ice]]", which could suggest that this were misreports and that he was never on board with it, especially considering that he has previously stated that [[WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas with]] [[WesternAnimation/CorpseBride some]] [[Film/SweeneyToddTheDemonBarberOfFleetStreet exceptions]], he is not really a fan of the musical genre.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The ''entire'' musical is one big old example of this, given that it was cancelled during production. The main page goes into more detail about its fate.

Added DiffLines:

* CutSong: Per usual for a Steinman production, it's made mostly of these, though with the exception of "Angels Arise" it's more fragments of trunk songs than the full things. "Graveyard Shift" includes bits of "Edging Into Darkness" from Steinman's 1970s musical version of ''Literature/TheConfidenceMan'' and "Nowhere Fast" from ''Film/StreetsOfFire''.
