What's next? "Bosom Buddies: The Musical?"
How about "What's Happening?: The Musical?"
"Columbo: The Musical?"

Posted: 2/26/09 at 4:00pmThis is not a new show. It was done in Chicago about 18 years ago.

"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

This show has been around for a while. I remember reading a review of it in an in-flight magazine about 15 years ago. I may have a recording of it lying around somewhere. The official website has song clips.

Posted: 2/26/09 at 4:07pmThis show is legitimately one of the worst ever written. I've seen it, done a cutting of it for a kid's show (and by done I mean called as a SM)...and wanted to blow my brains out both times. No thanks.

The Gilligan's Island castaways did their own musical: Hamlet, the musical.

Posted: 2/26/09 at 9:43pmI thought there was talk that this was a "pre-off-Broadway" tour?

I love that the opening "night" performance is at 1 PM down there in Florida.
Gotta have the old folks home at a reasonable hour, huh?
