...effects. "It looks very high tech," says co-producer Thomas Schumacher, president of Disney Theatrical Productions, "but this show doesn't employ any techniques that haven't been in use for decades." Perhaps, but with flying stunts and a house that appears and disappears, the show is dressed to impress. And no wonder, given this team's track record.

In fact, their job is to be live weight--or at least ballast. They are steady, difficult to impress and maddeningly unromantic. "If we're in the studio trying to build the rocket," says Bono, "Edge is under the hood with his slide rule, I'm trying to become fuel, Larry is pointing out the reasons it'll never fly, and Adam's asking, 'Do we really want...
