LotR musical?

Posted by: Jambo / 1:34 PM

This seems like a really bad idea.

MOVE over, "Lion King." Make way, "Aida" — and take a back seat, "Phantom." The most expensive stage musical yet produced will probably be "The Lord of the Rings," which begins previews Feb. 2 at Toronto's Princess of Wales Theatre. The official cost is $27 million Canadian (about $31.6 million U.S.).
Jerjo tipped me off to this and shuddered at the thought of a singing Strider. On the other hand (and this may be just my personal obsession taste) I can picture a vampy little number by Eowyn, maybe to the tune of "You Can Leave Your Hat On." "Baby take off your shield...But you can leave your helm on"

(By the way, if the figures in the article are correct it just shows you should never change money at the airport. They could have gotten a WAY better rate at a bank in town.)

Wow. I totally missed the day that a Canadian dollar was worth more than an American dollar. I gotta pay attention.

Leave it to the NY Post to get the exchange rate backwards.

The only thing the Post gets right is their Page Six gossip.

Jambo, I still agree with your original thought on missing scenes from ROTK. There should have been an Arwen/Eowyn bathing scene in the Houses of Healing.
