ST Poll: What will be NBC's next announced live musical? -- (edited)

Posted by ty97 Dec 8 '16, 09:52

I think they've announced one already, so not *that* one

Responses:

Oklahoma might be an option too -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 10:46
Evita... dedicated to Fidel... J Trudeau to star as Che -- nm - VMan Dec 8, 10:38
West Side Story? -- nm - Strongbad Dec 8, 10:35 2
- This is a good candidate (if they don't cast a white chick as Maria!) -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 10:37 1
  - they wouldn't. they're committed to diversity and wouldn't want the backlash. -- nm - Diva Dec 8, 10:42
Feels right nostalgia-wise for Phantom of the Opera, no? -- nm - Name Withheld by Request Dec 8, 10:31 7
- Phantom's still running Les Miz closed, so they could do that. -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 10:32 6
  - I don't think Miz has the easily accessible for the whole family vibe some viewers want (based on the choices thus far). What about Mary Poppins then? -- nm - Name Withheld by Request Dec 8, 10:34 2
    - Probably not with the Emily Blunt Mary Poppins movie coming out. -- nm - Roger More Dec 8, 10:56
    - Les Miz subject matter is a bit more mature (not in a sex way) I guess, but the show has been wildly popular and has well-known show-stopping songs -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 10:36
  - that's a good idea. The show will have to start airing at 7:00 pm. -- nm - Diva Dec 8, 10:33 2
    - I'd love them to do Rent just to see middle America react to a man kissing a tranny on live TV -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 10:34 1
      - They just did Rocky Horror. Didn't hear of any extreme outrage. -- nm - VMan Dec 8, 10:46
Sweeny Todd -- nm - JD Dec 8, 10:29
They should break the bank for Hamilton. -- nm - David Dec 8, 10:26 9
- heh -- nm - Beaker Dec 8, 10:37
- There's no amount of money in the world that would do that. It will be a decade until the movie. - ty97 Dec 8, 10:29 7
  - it won't be on TV as long as it's playing on the Bway. That could easily be 15 years. They should do 'In the Heights' instead and - Diva Dec 8, 10:32 3
    - That would be AMAZING, but I doubt they'd do it before they do the motion picture -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 10:33 2
      - Normally iwould doubt that as well, but if Weinstein can't get their shit together and NBC backs up a *dump truck* of money, I could see it. - Diva Dec 8, 10:38 1
        
        I'm all for it. I just think that would tank the odds of the movie being made for a long time. - ty97 Dec 8, 10:39
  - Good point. How about In the Heights? -- nm - mara Dec 8, 10:31
  - 10 Trillion dollars! -- nm - Hamilton Sorry Nope Ty Said Dec 8, 10:30 1
    - The Broadway show will make that in the first six months of 2017! -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 10:31
Can we hope for something like Chicago? -- nm - ReluctantCynic Dec 8, 10:22 2
- It's running on Broadway now, but the revival has been running for 20 years. If it closes, I could see the live musical -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 10:30 1
  - Although Chicago is not as...family friendly...as their other fare -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 10:30
Does it have to be a musical? Why not Waiting for Godot - con_carne Dec 8, 10:09 1
- Only if you want ratings. -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 10:33
American Idiot will not be announced. -- nm - zunk via drone Dec 8, 10:04 2
- Their loss. -- nm - jnine Dec 8, 11:24
- it will if jnine becomes NBC Head of Programming -- nm - prayformojo Dec 8, 10:08
it's Bye Bye Birdie with Jlo I though -- nm - Remlik Dec 8, 10:01 1
- R.I.F. -- nm - Diva Dec 8, 10:08
What have they done so far? Wizard of Oz, Peter Pan, Sound of Music, now Hairspray? Anything I'm missing? -- nm - Name Withheld by Request Dec 8, 10:01 4
- I don't think the stage version of 'Wizard of Oz' has been done. That might be cool. -- nm - Diva Dec 8, 10:18
- Grease -- nm - con_carne Dec 8, 10:08 2
  - Fox did 'Grease' last year. -- nm - Diva Dec 8, 10:09 1
    - Well there you go. It's NBC's turn -- nm - con_carne Dec 8, 10:12
Avenue Q -- nm - Baron Zero C Dec 8, 09:56 2
- hahahahaha. HBO maybe -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 09:56 1
  - They have Sesame Street, so why not? -- nm - znufrii Dec 8, 10:01
She Loves Me would be awesome -- nm - znufrii Dec 8, 09:54 3
- I adore this musical. -- nm - Diva Dec 8, 10:17 2
  - I wish I had gotten it together to go see the Broadway revival. -- nm - znufrii Dec 8, 10:19 1
    - I saw the first Bway revival back in 1993. It was one of the first Bway shows i ever saw, and damn, I'm old. It was just delightful. - Diva Dec 8, 10:24
Music Man -- nm - volnelk Dec 8, 09:54 1
- Wells Fargo wagon shade. -- nm - MDH Dec 8, 09:54
I'd love to see My Fair Lady. Singin in the Rain would be fun too. -- nm - kelly Dec 8, 09:54
Cats -- nm - Beaker Dec 8, 09:52 2
- Not as long as the revival is still running on Broadway. -- nm - znufrii Dec 8, 09:53
- There's a revival on Broadway right now, doubt they'd want to cut into that. -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 09:53
