The IONESCO Musical is quite clever actually, his words make interesting lyrics.
And TO WONG FU.... is really not a bad idea.

Night, the musical. Although, as an opera, perhaps interesting.

"If they can do priscilla, why not Too Wong Foo?"
I actually think that show would be good. It has the potential to be a stage show, but it would have to be rewritten well and not a copy of the movie.
Here's a bad one:
HONK! It's a musical about The Ugly Duckling!....oh...wait...

umm - in college, I wrote a libretto of a musical version of 1984. It was much more along the lines of Les Mis style than 42nd Street. Somehow I never quite worked out how to do the rat attack scene...
I actually think there IS a great musical in that novel somewhere, but Orwell's estate won't allow it to be done. From what I've researched, several of our top composers had attempted to contact the estate to get the rights for it, but were denied. Me? I went ahead and wrote it anyway - nobody's ever seen it other than a couple of friends and my professor (I got a B+ on it, btw - as I said, I ran into some serious Act 2 problems).
