Autism, the Musical is a documentary on HBO (or Showtime)
I doubt Forbidden Broadway would EVER make fun of it.

Posted: 3/25/08 at 3:54pmSorry, but this sounds like something Forbidden Broadway wouldn't have to make fun of.

I autsitic reporter is now here to share his thoughts (me).
When I heard about this last year, I told my mom (who likes learning about autisim) about this movie musical (Which I like) If it happens, I'll defentally be there seeing it.

Uh it's not a musical, it a documentary about a program that caters to children with Autism and has them put on a musical. There was an article in The New York Times today about it.
A Different Sort of ‘Hey Kids, Let’s Put on a Show!’

I love making fun of Xanadu! I know you hate it as well. Autisim is a terrible thing to make fun of!

Posted: 3/25/08 at 4:13pmI did not know they showed it in theaters. I would like to see it 'cause it sounds amazing. Does anyone rememeber the documentary about the developmentally challenged children who did THE WIZ.

Posted: 3/25/08 at 4:21pmJR it wasn't The Wiz, it was The Wizard of Oz, and the movie was called Yellow Brick Road. I just remember when the kids went to go see Fame and one of the girls said she was going to be on Broadway.

Posted: 3/25/08 at 4:53pmYeah but Trilogy of Terror was ALSO a TV movie and it's NEVER become a Broadway musical. So there.
#17re: Autism the Musical, And Forbidden Broadway should not come near it
Posted: 3/25/08 at 4:56pmThat's b/c the Trilogy Of Terror is so brilliant any attempts to adapt it are useless.

Posted: 3/25/08 at 5:07pmSince it's a documentary, I was going to suggest "Dateline NBC Presents: To Catch A Predator, The Musical" -- but then realized that really isn't that out of the realm of possibility.

I think they did. It was called THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE . . .
I laughed so hard partially because many of the kids did seem real, and several actually reminded me of former ASD kids (in a kind way; it is not a negative show in any way). I swear I had Marcy Parks in class.

Well it seems since the only musical based off a documentary didn't do very well financially, I don't know if this one would either. Would people flock to see this, or Phantom of the Opera?
