I hope it’s not! One thing that makes me think it isn’t dead is that on PolkPR’s website it’s listed as a current client and it wasn’t a month ago! So there’s hope!

I hope it's not dead. It was so much better than : Beautiful, Summer, Ain't Too Proud, King Kong, Aladin, Cher Show, Frozen, Mean Girls.. just to name a few ... add any other crappy jukebox musical.

Please explain to me how King Kong, Aladdin, Frozen, and Mean Girls are jukebox musicals...?

Sorry, it probably should have read "plus any other jukebox musical" not on my list. That did not mean that the list only had jukebox musicals on it. Poorly written.

Is Drew still involved? Wonder if he’s heading back to waitress once joeys finished.

 No need to apologize. I was just being picky lol.

They made a joke about this the other night at the [title of show] reunion concert.

Hunter was doing an updated version of the list of musicals based on movies, and when he said Dave he said it like there was a question mark at the end of it.

The joke killed.

Perhaps I'm missing something, but in recent history, there haven't been many out-of-town Pre-Broadway flops that have closed on the road these days. Or perhaps there have been, that I'm just not aware of. Although I will tell you, Soft Power definitely should've.

Surprised Dave didn’t end up off-broadway at least given the creative team involved.

Any news about this?  I just discovered the movie last night and was so excited to learn there was a musical adaptation in the works.

If I’m not mistaken they did another workshop a couple months ago, so I believe it’s still being worked on.
