Posted: 5/21/05 at 1:11pmits suppose to be about the show? How they go into these tasks and someone gets fired? How do you make a Broadway show out of that?

sounds ridiculous (of course Spamalot sounded ridiculous, as did Urinetown, and I loved BOTH of them)
so, I'm trying to keep an open mind

It will be as good as the creative team makes it.

I'll give it a chance! Apparently there is some love story or some crap involved. If it's campy enough it could be fun.
As I once said, it will go something like this:
The Opening Number: Trump's Rules
Trump:
We'll start the game with 16 folks
All wanting to be way less than broke
So with each song, a new one will expire
And tell them, pack your bags- "You're Fired"

Posted: 5/22/05 at 9:14amI'd definitely go watch it if it was a musical comedy but I think they will try to ponce it up and make it quite serious.

I think it could go either way...Im gonna wait to hear more about it. I think it could be funny if they do it really "sarcastically"
I thought Spelling Bee sounded like a dumb idea but it turned out brilliant!

Posted: 5/22/05 at 1:12pmYou know what? I think it could work! As silly and stupid as it seems, they really could pull it off. As long as it's not exactly like the show. You know, stick a love story in there, some scandal, wrap it up with some relatively catchy music with witty lyrics and you juuuuust might have something. Unless they put everything exactly where it needs to be, it will just be a flop, but I say don't give up on it just yet. Broadway is unpredictable!
