LOL
Only if they invade the theatre and peck the eyes out of everyone in the audience.
Maybe they could add in the Bird Woman from Mary Poppins and make it more kid-friendly.

There is a PLAY version which received mixed notices out-of-town and overseas by Conor MacPherson. Could that be what you're talking about?

Actually I can see this working if they did it like Little Shop Of Horrors. You know you can see Ellen Greene in the Tippi Hedren role.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

how can we confirm whether or not you heard something?
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Oh, so it's like the Valley of the Dolls stage show. I couldn't imagine a legit adaptation.
Gotcha.
Now "Psycho" on the other hand, I think could be adapted ...

The Shower Scene would be a 15 minute ballet, a la Rodgers and Hammerstein.

Well, BK didn't do a ballet - but he did include a tap number.

The birds should peck the eyes out of late comers and those who text during the show.
