Where's nomdeplume? I'd have thought he/she would be all over this one.

Nomdeplume is undoubtedly doing homework.

I think she's also in the salt-water phase.

I think a black Rocky is just wrong. Next they'll want to do an all black version of Dreamgirls.

When will the madness stop?

(btw, I thought this thread was going to be about the Rocky Balboa musical that Flaherty and Ahrens are writing)

Now if someone would have the balls to cast a black actor as Jesus in JCS...

Racial historical accuracy is NOT relevant when it comes to the role of Jesus! Even the most staunch anti-color-blind-casting folk will tell you that!

There actually IS a Rocky & Bullwinkle musical. It is constructed just like the TV show - the Rocky & Bullwinkle story is divided into segments which are interspersed with Peabody & Sherman, Dudley Doright, Fractured Fairy Tales, Aesop & Son, etc.

Why is Judas always black?
