Posted: 8/17/14 at 10:15pmAt least you could do The Fountainhead at one sitting. Imagine Atlas Shrugged as a musical.

A Kind of Hush (The Herman's Hermits Musical).
Or is that the description of the show's "buzz"?
(And I like Herman's Hermits.)

A musical based on Rocky, retaining all of the original music from the first two Rocky movies, just in case the new score is not up to par (in hopes that no one will notice)
A musical about train cars...except I loved it in London

Are you sure that wasn't meant for the other thread?
Either way, though, it works.

Posted: 8/20/14 at 3:59pmWell, we turned "Rocky" into a musical. How about "Network"? You could do a Laugh_in windows thing for the "Mad As Hell" number.

Posted: 8/21/14 at 11:05pmNot my idea. A workshop production I just returned from here in Boston titled "God Hates Musicals". Parody of the Westboro Baptist Church. Unbelievably bad book, forgettable score. The performers? It was like "Waiting for Guffman", except not funny. I'm still kinda stunned by it all.

Whenever I listen to Sarah Brightman's Dreamchaser album, I always get this image in my head of a musical about this alien/human hybrid coming to live among the people on Earth and having a hard time adjusting.
It's awful.

CAROUSEL- NEVER-ENDING. A sequel to Rodgers and Hammerstein's CAROUSEL which has Billy returning to Earth to see his wife and daughter, heaven for some reason allows them to see him; due to that, tragedy, romance, but mostly hilarious hi-jinks ensue.
Please don't kill me.
