What musical should be Muppetised?

[unclematt]

LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS. The only muical I could see the Muppets doing. Great music for the EM.

Seymour - Kermit
Audrey - Piggy
Mushnik - Fozzie
Dentist - Gonzo

Could you imagine a Muppetized Audrey II?
Maybe Frank Oz could come back and direct this version just like he did with the Rick Moranis version. Great Musical, Great Movie and Great foir the Muppets.

It already has that grown up feel we are looking for.

Don't wish to drift off-topic, but it's interesting to see how two consequtive posts dealt with roles I've played in school productions of musicals:

Cord Elam-Sam the eagle

Rueben: Kermit

As revealed else where I'm actually busy rehersing for the second one now!

nuff said.

 

[HPDJ]

Harvey Towers-I'VE PLAYED CORD ELAM TOO!!!!! Cool!

 

[MrsPepper]

How bout Dracula, the musical?

 

[maxdrive]

Its not a musical but how about the play our town.

or a muppet version of Cats

 

[BEAR]

you know what's funny? My friends and I used to come up with Muppet casts of the shows that we were doing at the time. The "Peter Pan" Muppet cast I felt was pretty good. It went something like this:

Peter Pan: Kermit
Wendy: Miss Piggy
John: Scooter
Michael: Rizzo
Captain Hook: Gonzo
Smee: Fozzie
Tiger Lily/Indians: Janice with the EM
Mr. Darling: Sam Eagle
Nana: Rowlf...wouldn't he be great. I can just imagine his sarcastic commentary to the audience.
Tinkerbelle: a chicken on a rope.
Pirates would include characters like Bunsen, Beaker, Lew Zealand, Beauregard, Pepe and Chef.
Statler and Waldorf would obviously make their usual cameo as themselves somewhere.

what do you think?

I like your ideas BEAR, but I think Pepe would make a nice Tinker Bell, especially in his tutu from MFS.
