The only thing on there that I didn't know was that they're thinking of getting Kevin Chamberlin who (although I love) wouldn't be good in the role.
Old news..

I think Kevin Chamberlin would be great.
Much better choice than Dirty Dan Fogler.

Oh goody, another kiddie musical based on a cartoon. You can't have too many of them. Its a good thing Broadway has stopped producing good - exciting - original - innovative theatre for adults.

I think I heard about this about 5 years ago...and the whole endeavor has just gone downhill since then.
First were reports that Dave Yazbek was going to compose it, then he was replaced with Tesori (a brilliant composer who is completely wrong for this project), then it was going to star Dan Fogler, and now we're on to Kevin Chamberlain.
And just as before, we're still 18 months to 2 years away.
This was never a good idea.
