Let's make sure there is room for:
Britney Spears as Sweet Charity (remember that rumor)
Act II of The Wedding Singer
Tarzan without Josh Strickland
and Ashlee's new nose as Roxie

David Merrick would have to be included -- who in the history of Broadway was struck more fear in the heart of people than Mr. Merrick?

The room he is in should be painted bright red to match his old office above the St. James. Each visitor will have to go up to Merrick at his desk and inform him that the show of theirs that he is backing is losing money. Then sit back and watch the horror that ensues!

The next stop in the Broadway Haunted House is the "Jerome Robbins Dance Rehearsal from Hell" room...

This is hilarious.

How about a room of divas. All of them. In one room.

I think, as funny as it is, Forbidden broadway creeps me out on CD whenever I hear Christine Pedi singing like Liza. Oh wait, that's every time!

First, you enter the laboratory of Fran and Barry Weissler where they are concocting their latest stunt casting creation gone bad! Thunder roars, lightning flashes, and the electricity surges through the Frankenstein-like machinery as Barry shouts "It's Alive! It's Alive!" Throughout the laboratory are cryogenically frozen specimens of their previous experiments -- some successful such as the chilled figure of Reba McIntyre as Annie Oakley, and others that went horribly wrong like the chamber that contains Louis Gossett, Jr. dressed as Billy Flynn.

As you exit this diabolical laboratory and feel like you have escaped certain death you are in for an unpleasant surprise! For in the next room contains the Jekyll and Hyde Bad Casting Chamber of Horrors! You are subjected to hearing David Hasselhoff and Sebastian Bach "butchering" renditions of "This is the Moment" while swinging their hair extensions like they were cat o'nine tails!

However the horror doesn't end there -- you must next survive being chained to a table and forced to listen to the Ethel Merman Disco album all the way through!!!

When will the horror ever end?!?!!?

That's OK Kitzy, there's nothing wrong with being a masochist

Actually...I kinda like the album too. However, you can't have a Broadway ANYTHING without including the Merm somewhere!

There could be a room with Gladiator-type battles to the death between Best Musical Winners and the shows they beat out to win. You could have Ragtime vs. The Lion King, or Wicked vs. Avenue Q. It would be a way to settle the score once and for all. I can see it now...

"Coalhouse using his Model T as a weapon plows over the three hyenas -- reducing them to roadkill under his 'Wheels of a Dream'. WAIT -- there's Younger Brother planting explosives on the big elephant puppet. WOW what a huge explosion -- he surely does know how to blow things up! The blast has taken out the elephant as well as the actors playing grass, antelope #2, and the African birds on a stick. All of this is going on while Grandfather stands on the sidelines being totally irritated by everything. Uh-oh don't look now - but Simba has pounced on Tateh faster than you can say Buffalo Nickel Photoplay Inc. Simba rips him to pieces! I guess Tateh isn't feeling the love tonight! Wait -- here comes Evelyn Nesbit flying in on her swing and lands a swift kick right into Rafiki's skull -- now that's what I call the crime of the century WHEEEEEE!"
