I'm assuming this is based on the Rosie O'Donnell movie but with a gender switch to cash in on the whole TransAmerica thing?

Yes, Namo, sort of like I Love You Because. I was thinking Peter Dinklage in the Rosie role, but I don't know if he can sing. I would like to see Jason Robert Brown do the score.

I'm sure the bus from Caroline or Change is available. I'm also sure Rath would agree that if you can get Oprah to produce it'll run forever.

I know what you're talking about, Sueleen, but I have to say that if we were making a musical about riding the bus with MY Brother, we would have to cast Liam Neeson because that's who my (younger) brother looks like...especially in this photo:



P.S. I had to add the word "younger" to the description of my brother because my OLDER brother looks like Tim Kazurinsky.
