witchywoman: I do believe you're talking about The Pirates Of Penzance which featured Lovely Linda & Kevin Kline......
I heard that Stevie was approached to play the Mary Steenburgen role in Time After Time (1979) with Malcolm McDowell. Mick Jagger was approached to play the Jack the Ripper role also. But reportedly Nicholas Meyer the director dismissed the Rock & Roll tilt and the role went to David Warner...
Still it would've been interesting to see Stevie in that role !
