So this is actually happening, huh? I can already see the set design and the puppet (and probably the lighting) getting praised. I can also see that the show will probably flop too. Hopefully, it doesn't.
I don't really know how to feel about this....
HELLO PEOPLE! :D

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Posted: 11/9/17 at 8:49am^ That's what has me confused by this news. Like when was the thread about that made? I remember responding to it with the song Jack Black sang on SNL. I didn't think it was that long ago.

All the press materials from months ago when the show announced intentions to open fall 2018 mentioned that JRB and Norman had been replaced: http://www.playbill.com/article/king-kong-musical-will-conquer-broadway-in-2018-harry-potter-scribe-joins-creative-team

And before them it was Craig Lucas on book and Marius de Vries doing the entire score:

This is like that ridiculous Betty Boop project that has been through untold creative teams. But I'm sure (sarcasm alert) that they've got the winning team this time around...

OOOhhh, I get to be "that guy."
The giant gorilla movie with The Rock is Rampage, based on the 80s arcade game of the same name. Other than featuring a giant gorilla (and potentially giant Lizard and Wolf creatures) it has nothing to do with King Kong.

Rampage was my go to arcade game at Chuck'E'Cheese back in the day, until the X-Men game arrived.

Posted: 4/24/18 at 10:23amI’m not surprised. She went back to London after Saigon and I think she’s basically there to stay. Her close friends and husband are all Londoners.
