Lucy the musical, I was thinking about bringing her life to the musical stage, but it would be difficult

Posted: 7/8/05 at 2:45pmwritten properly...i think it would have a good run- but that brings in a WHHOOLLLE other genre of 'tv musicals'

I think that would be hard to do. Finding someone to fill those shoes will be difficult.
I do think that AND INTRODUCING DOROTHY DANDRIGE would be a hit on stage.

I'm having a flashback, and it's not a good thing.
Maybe someone here can help me out. Anyone remember some of those numbers FaithPrinceFan321 had proposed?

Wait, this might be clever. With Ricky's band and her always trying to get "into the act".
It does have potential.

It could be an incredibly good idea. It wouldn't draw a very young demographic, but I think it would draw more of an adult audience. Not saying that teens wouldn't go, because I absolutely LOVE Lucy. Written correctly, the script would really have to be the strong point. However, wouldn't it be kind of hard because Lucy has to kind of have that distinguishable voice .. wouldn't it be weird to relay that voice into song?
I think it sounds like a great idea, though.
