Armistead Maupin's "Tales of the City"!! Last time I went to San Francisco, I was going thru the streets of Russian Hill, trying to find a reasonable facsimile for 98 Barbary Lane. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has done that. from Roman in Austin, Texas
"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)

Now I'm thinking...now that "Jerry Springer" became a opera.
So how about "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy"???...it must be a really funny musical.

Strangers With Candy would be an AWESOME musical. I think they need the original cast from the show to do it, though. Stephen Colbert sings in the one where he wants to be a rock star, and he's not that bad, same with dancing. Neither is Paul Dinello. And I don't think anyone could replace Amy Sedaris. How awesome would it be to have a "friendship" song for Noblet and Jellineck? ^________^
What about Beth Leavel as Mrs. Blank?

Posted: 7/16/06 at 10:13amBuffy the Vampire Slayer. It has already ben proven that it works as a musical. The musical episode was the best episode ever.

Posted: 7/16/06 at 12:47pmThe thing with TV show's is that the cast is so iconic that a stage version would have to be such a departure from the show to do well. Like the Brady Bunch Movie vs. Bewitched, it has to parody or else people don't buy into it.

pandajen - Blackadder as a musical would be absolutely HILARIOUS. I could definitely see it doing really well off-Broadway.
I think it'd be cool if there was a musical based off a game show, like Wheel of Fortune/Millionaire/Family Feud/etc, in which the contestants play and talk about their past and stuff. Kinda Spelling-Bee-esque.

Love the Blackadder idea. The first act could be in one period and the second act in another.

TomMonster, love the idea of different eras!!! If it were up to me, I think the first act should be the second series and second should be the one in WWII. But this would be an awesome musical. I mean, the TV show already has an awesome theme song!
Baldrick definitely needs his own song. Or maybe a duet with Percy.
