In other musicals-of-doom news, I'm going to see the thoroughly gloomy new musical Marguerite in a few weeks. From the title, you would have reason to think it was based on Faust rather than Dumas' La dame aux camélias. This musical is to La Traviata as Rent is to La Bohème, at least in terms of source material.
