Re:LOTR The Musical?!?!?!?
Apparently none of the London stages can accomodate all the production effects, so it’s starting in Toronto…according to cnn.com today.
And yes, yes, I realize the Niebelungenlied connection. And true it is very melodramatic in true operatic style…
And yes there is music and verse galor in the books….but I just can’t get passed the idea of Hobbits singing about “going to Mordor!!!” 😛 😆
And don’t get me wrong – I’m not against musicals(saw The Producers 2 weeks ago)….but this just kind of strikes me as the whole “Death to Smoochy” ideas about ice shows….
color me stunned and astounded! 😆
