Bizarre...A Little

So Im driving to work this morning, listening to the radio, and I hear the strangest of things....SPIDERMAN THE MUSICAL! Oh man. I'm all for musicals, but a singing man in blue tights dancing while shooting webs from his wrists, and fighting green goblins and such...seriously? So Im thinking, wow, now Ive heard everything! But boy was I wrong, I hadnt heard everything until the next comment made; also in talks for becoming a musical....SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE! what!?! It must have been the dance sequence at the end to make this a possibility. Dont get me wrong, I loved this moving, but theres something that is not so inticing about watching a boy sing his answers sitting in the hot seat. So many films, and literature can be turned in to a stage performance, but I think these are two that really shouldnt make this list. I am however, excited for, and hopeful that it makes its way to America (and Canada, but thats not likely), Sister Act A Devine Musical Comedy!! Whoopi Goldberg will not be acting in it, but she is helping produce it. Its opening in London, which I dont think I will get a chance to make it too...but I hope it does spectacular!! The score is by Alan Menken, who is fantastic, he's done a lot of Disney movie songs for Aladdin, Little Mermaid, Beauty & The Beast; so the music should be great. It was written by a Bill & Cheri Steinkellner, who had writting credits on Cheers. So there is a lot of talent behind this musical. Loved the movie, and this is something new and fresh stemming from it, so I think it will be great! This is definitley one of the movies I could see becoming a musical, but Spidey and Slumdog? Just seems rather strange to me.
