    No... I get all that. I just mean why is Spinal surprised they made a musical out of a musical.
    Because it's so closely tied to its original cast.

    Matilda the Musical

    Not an unusual subject for a musical. But notable because the music and lyrics were written by Tim Minchin.

    They made a musical out of that joke with the farmer and his three holes?

    I read that NYTimes article a few days ago, and actually thought the project sounded really interesting. Though I do wonder how much sincerity, rather than camp, can effect a story that is ostensibly so close to camp that to play it straight almost seems silly.

    I also like how on the first page you sound exciting (rather than dismayed at the musical) for Carrie.

    EDIT: You know what would be awesome as a musical? Of Mice and Men. Cos any song about rabbits would invariably make my cry. And generate a Buffy connection, which would then make me giggle.
