How awesome would this be?
Morissey: The Musical!

A 'We Will Rock You'-style musical based on Morrissey's songs is currently in the works.

The idea has been conceived by Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant, who both starred in 'Reno 911!' and wrote the movies 'Night at the Museum' and 'Balls Of Fury'.

Lennon told New York Metro: "I have an outline in my head, like 'Mamma Mia'- type musical but with them music of Morrissey called 'I've Changed My Plea To Guilty'. It's for a very diehard set of fans."

It is not clear when the musical will open.

	I love Thomas Lennon so much. I still wish Comedy Central would release Viva Variety on DVD. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	The State is coming out on DVD! And my source is The State's Official Website, so I'm pretty confident. About time, too! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Because Lord knows we don't have enough shitty musicals based on pop music. Someone ought to do a musical based on the songs of Tori Amos. It'd be like the same effect from smoking crack for the low price of a ticket from TKTS! (Reply to this)(Thread)
