Shoutout to the New York Theater Folks

Does anyone remember this? I think it was back in the late 80s/early 90s when a New York theater critic said that the cast (or show) should be steamrolled? It came up in a conversation yesterday and I was trying to remember which critic said it and about which show. I seem to recall that it was a Broadway musical, but I can't quite be sure. I would love to see a copy of the review if anyone has it.

Thanks!

okay, I don't know who said this or about what, but I can't help but guess. And I'm going with Merrily We Roll Along. I know it got awful reviews, so I hope that when you find how, you'll post it. -R
