The Little Mermaid: A New Musical

[jacobsnchz]

I heard that there will be a "Little Mermaid" Broadway musical. Here is a link to a fan site:

What is it with you and all these threads about new movies and musicals?

 

[Drtooth]

Does Disney ALWAYS have to make a Musical based on one of their cartoon films?

Whatever... Who's gonna right the new songs? Menkin's gone...

BTW... is it just me or does "Somewhere that's Green" from Little Shop of Horrors and "PArt of your World" sound pretty much alike, especially the ending?

I know they're written by the same guy, but...come on!

Where did he go?

I think DrTooth was thinking of Howard Ashman, who died of AIDS in 1991... he and Menken collaborated on a number of projects

I just think that they're interesting. I am into all of that stuff. Is that a problem?!

The musical will have many of the film's original songs and a few new songs. The lyrics are posted on www.littlemermaidbroadway.blogspot.com

Of course it's not a problem, Jacob! Don't feel alone; I'm into Broadway and musicals too. I for one am very excited about the stage adapt of Mermaid; it happens to be my all-time favorite Disney movie. My opinions and thoughts about that movie are too numerous to post here (plus, I don't want to stray off-topic too much), so feel free to PM me and I won't jump down your throat like a few others I could mention.

Yeah, don't worry, Jacob. There's nothing wrong with it at all. I am a fan of Broadway musicals also. I've heard about the new Mermaid adapt a few years ago and was excited.

Thanks PRINCETON! I appreciate your sympathy. Though I am a guy, I love that movie too! I posted this thread also to remind you because I knew that you liked LM when I saw your avatar. LOL! Thanks also, BEAR!
