Parade - I love it, but on paper it sounds simply awful.
Grey Gardens - another one I love, but can you imagine the pitch: hey, let's do a musical based on a cult documentarty about 2 reclusive relatives of the Kennedy clan!

Posted: 3/22/08 at 2:21amAt first glance, Eva Perón seems like an unlikely subject for a musical.
Vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra
Salve, Salve Regina
Ad te clamamus exsules filii Eva
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
O clemens O pia

A young girl runs away from home, ends up in a strange country, kills the first woman she meets, robs her, runs off to meet a political figure, killing the woman's sister in the process, before fleeing the country completely.
Oh wait...that's The Wizard of Oz.
(Yes, I know, it was also a TV Guide description, but it seemed to fit.)

One about a mother taking her mentally challenged daughter on vacation in Italy.
One where a Shakespeare classic is merges with a bunch of disco-gospel singers and a strobe light.
Wait, both of those are musicals. . . and the second one even one the Tony.

I still don't think that Sweeney Todd is a great idea for a musical, but I love it! I haven't gotten around to seeing the movie yet though, but love the original angela lansbury version.
That must have been quite a weird pitch too actually.....

Chap goes looking for a cave. Finds one. Gets foot trapped by rock underground. Dies.
And yet that's my most favouritest show in the world...
