I love Big and I Love You, You're Perfect...
And I really enjoyed the Wedding Singer
I really disagree with these Bad Musical Ideas threads... I don't think any idea can be inherently bad... Every groundbreaking piece of musical theater has been about a subject that many would've deemed "bad" had they been judging it in advance, i.e.
"A musical about Sweeney Todd?! Yuck"
And who would've thought that one of the latest artistically, critically, and financially succesful shows on Broadway would be about a middle school spelling bee?
Come on. The genius of musical theater is telling a story in an original, enlightening, and entertaining way. How can a story be any of those things if it's not surprising in its subject matter?
I'm not taking the thread too seriously... it's funny to joke about these things. I just wanted to express my opinion that an idea cannot be inherently bad- the execution is far more significant than the idea in producing a great piece of theatre.
[title of show] on Broadway. it's time. believe.

"The Chronicles of Narnia: The Musical"
It's already been done and it was terrible. It's called "Narnia" based off "The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe" Bad music and changes a lot from the book.

"The Hindenburg"
"Glen or Glenda.
On the other hand, I think Mike Nichols doing "Ed Wood" would be hysterical.

I hold a degree in Musical Theatre from Montclair State University. It is useless. Now I'm funny for money. Oh, and I sing.
