I hear you on GRUMPY... As of my last count there are about 45 shows in development (that I know of) based on a film, book or comic strip. There are also 26 revivals and a dozen or so biomusicals. So that is a little over 80 shows in development based on previously published/performed works or previously lived lives vs. a whopping 18 original works. Sad, sad, sad.
He's involved with the workshop of the musical adaptation of GRUMPY OLD MEN, so perhaps he'll be back to Broadway sooner than later.

ReplyDeleteThis Grumpy Old Man (GOM vs. SOB?!) is thinking of charging royalties for that picture. It's so wonderful.
