Bugs Bunny - The Musical

I love my musicals and normally see whatever musicals open 'Rain' and 'Baby It's You' aside, as a kid I loved the cartoons of Bugs Bunny but as a stage show, I would think this would be theater hell? Did anyone see this? Was it is as bad as it sounds?

That's all folks?

I don't remember an actual musical, but I think if one did exist it would be the same as anything you'd see the characters perform at Six Flags.

I would love to see Bugs Bunny the Opera at the Met - "Kill da wabbit" would sound great.

It wasn't a musical. It was a concert where a symphony performed the original scored music in sync with the classic cartoons projected on a large screen over the musicians. Quite brilliant, actually.

"Bugs Bunny On Broadway" would fall into that special event category. It played a limited engagement at the Gershwin Theater. Great orchestra playing live music along with popular cartoons. On opening night we all wore bunny ears.

So much of the humor comes from the cartoon medium... stuff that is physically impossible to duplicate in reality. Looney Toons run in a separate world from, say, most Disney animation. It's a world that needs to be animated for it to work.

I see some potential in a play or musical about Mel Blanc's life.
