Not since Carrie.

New York City’s MCC Theater is planning a “revival” of “Carrie”.

I put “revival” in quotes because…

[Stafford Arima, the director] predicted that about half of the songs would be different from the Broadway score, which was never recorded, contributing to the show’s legendary status.

and

Mr. [Bernard] Telsey [MCC co-artistic director]  said the draft script was in “very workable shape right now,” yet was so different from the original that he was not sure if MCC’s “Carrie” would be considered a revival or a reimagined work.
