Grumpy Old Men: The Musical, inspired by the 1993 movie that starred Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon, will get a starry Manhattan reading in October 2008. F. Murray Abraham and George Hearn will play the title codgers.
The reading of the Broadway-aimed show by composer Neil Berg, lyricist Nick Meglin and librettist Dan Remmes will also feature Chicago and "Taxi" veteran Marilu Henner (as Ariel, the role created by Ann-Margret), Carol Kane ("Taxi," Wicked), Vicki Lewis ("Newsradio," Damn Yankees), Joshua Malina ("The West Wing"), Ken Page (Cats, Ain't Misbehavin'), Michele Ragusa (Young Frankenstein, Ragtime, Paper Mill's Kiss Me, Kate) and Conrad John Schuck (a longtime Daddy Warbucks in Annie in New York and nationally) as Grandpa Gustafson.

Posted: 4/29/10 at 12:49amI know this was a while ago, seems like a great cast for a reading but haven't heard anything about this show since. Does anyone know if there is an update? Seems like it could have potential...
