15 things I'd love to see turned into a Broadway musical

Tons of things are getting turned into musicals these days, so why not these? Note that these include ideas for funny musicals as well as serious ones.
  1. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. Songs are already written, just need some editing to make it into s concise musical.
  2. Firefly. Whedon stuff has had musical aspects before, so why not a Firefly musical?
  3. The saga of Chance the Snapper. Discovery, alligator Bob's failure, the arrival of alligator Robb, and the reveal that Chance is not, in fact, an alligator. It's all there. I'd pay for this.
  4. Are You the One?. So many actors would be needed, but god this insanity of a show could make a very entertaining musical.
  5. Scooby Doo. This could be so goofy, so campy, and oh so fun.
  6. Geekerella. This precious YA novel has such heart that I think could carry through to the stage.
  7. Camel corps times. Hey did you know that we used to have troops on camels? No? Well this musical could teach you all about them.
  8. Brooklyn 99. This show is so delightful and I can only imagine a musical version would be the same.
  9. The story of King Henry VIII. His reign has a ton of drama, murder, delusion, and politics. It could be a really tragic musical, maybe a bit of a Sweeney Todd vibe.
  10. Buzzfeed Unsolved. Maybe Ryan and Shane could end up getting chased by something and Ryan thinks it's a demon and Shane thinks it's related to the true crime stuff they do. But, of course, it will have to remain...unsolved. There would also be a hot doga interlude.
  11. The Emu War. Hey remember that time humans fought emus and lost? No? Well this musical would make sure you did.
  12. The life of Frida Kahlo. Her life has so many intense moments that it could easily carry a show.
  13. Moana. How is that not already on Broadway?
  14. Clue. I have thought about staging this movie as a play, but music could really just add to it.
  15. Rajneeshpuram. This group is intricate, spiritual, and dangerous. All of those seem like they would lend well to a staged musical.

15 facts about my dad

Just been thinking about some lighthearted facts I know about my dad lately. When he was young, he had a goldfish named Lysander He introduced me to Star Trek At Christmas, he would tear up at It's a Wonderful Life He used to send me articles from his Yahoo email account that he thought I'd like We used to play a game called "Nightmare" where he would lie down and we'd jump around (and sometimes on) him He would clip possible recipes for us to try out of newspapers and magazines We bought him a Paddington Bear to take on trips because we feared he'd be lonely and he always took it He had teddy bears for three different holidays We once had such a hilariously difficult time building a gingerbread house that when some frosting ended up on the counter, I plopped a gumdrop on it and we laughed until we cried He and his sister were born about 11 months apart We would try recipes from Top Chef He kept gifts I made him, even when they weren't great At Christmas, ...
