...Great White Way nine months ago, he is the composer of two musicals, Jekyll & Hyde and The Scarlet Pimpernel, which have survived mostly scathing reviews to become box-office successes. A self-described "blue-collar professional songwriter" who has supplied material for the likes of Natalie Cole and Whitney Houston, he now has enough theater projects to keep him busy into the next millennium, and maybe the one after that.

When most people accept a million-plus offer, their lawyers check...
