The Visit (musical)
''The Visit'' is a musical with a book by Terrence McNally, lyrics by Fred Ebb, and music by John Kander.
Based on Friedrich Dürrenmatt's 1956 satirical play about greed and revenge ''Der Besuch der alten Dame'', it focuses on one of the world's wealthiest women, Claire Zachanassian, who returns to her financially depressed hometown and offers its residents a new lease on life in exchange for the murder of Anton Schell, the man who abandoned her years ago.

It had been scheduled for a try-out in Boston for December 2000–January 2001. Frank Galati was the director with Ann Reinking as choreographer, and co-starring Philip Bosco.〔Jones, Kenneth.
