Profile for Tim Barstow

Get Michael Mayer to direct, get Gerard Way to write the book (and possibly new songs), and I think it could be a huge success. You have a built-in fan base.

I think it could work. 

Is Louder Than Words overdone for auditions?

Is Louder Than Words overdone for auditions?

Ah, but Casey is already directing Spamalot.

Personally, I'd go with either Adam Shankman or Andy Fickman.

Hear me out.

Shankman did a GREAT job with Hairspray. Sure, Rock of Ages was a garbage fire, but that was the screenwriters' fault. Tina Fey is writing the script. 

Fickman is a theater veteran. He also directed a great movie musical with Reefer Madness.

Who'd you go with?

I'd like to see someone who's not in the movie musical sphere (ie. Pasek and Paul, Shaiman and Wittman, Alan Menken, LMM) take a shot at writing the songs. Dave Malloy? Sara Barielles? Andrew Lippa?

Jordan Fisher as Fiyero?
He can act, sing, dance, do cocky, do romance, he's famous-ish.

Absolutely brilliant.

There are lots.  Drew Gasparini, John Bucchino, Adam Gwon. Who are your favorite underknown composers?

Netflix has three movies based on kind of obscure musicals in various stages of development: The Prom, 13, and Tick, Tick... Boom! Which musicals do you think Netflix should adapt? I think either Be More Chill or Pippin.

In my opinion, it’s The Producers. Beetlejuice, or Spamalot.

Where is the stage door? Can you even stage door there at all? 

Do you think the whole cast from St Ann's will transfer?
 

I have 2 movies that would be perfect for a stage musical.

Billy Madison

My Best Friend's Wedding
