Starmites?

I just want to know if anyone else is a fan of the musical Starmites. If you are, do you know if it's likely to get revived because I've always imagined a revival with (though they might be too big names to do this show all together) Felicia Day and Darren Criss as the leads and Sutton Foster or Jennifer Hudson (if you're okay with race-bending) as Diva.

Um, no.... It was pretty terrible the first go round. Sharon McKnight was fine as the Diva and Liz Larsen was good with the crummy material. Honestly the only thing I remember is Gabriel Barre flicking his tongue as a lizard thing....

There was a brief discussion about this a few months ago.

It was one of the worst musicals Ive ever had to sit through.
It pars with the abysmal Doctor Jazz, Marlowe, Shogun the musical.

^ If it's even possible to imagine, it got worse with revision. Met someone on PianoFiles who had a revised script with a copyright date of 2010, and it didn't get better. At all.

It was one of those shows that was SO BAD that it was funny. Of course, my friend and I had had some cocktails beforehand, but we had the time of our lives when Sharon McKnight sang Hard to Be Diva.
