One year, the FF staged a musical about the Renaissance. I saw it. Like the Citizen Ruth musical, I couldn't tell if it was the greatest or the worst idea of all time. In hindsight, I still cannot decide. I think the FF specializes in that kind of theatre.

And...I know a guy in the I Can Haz Cheezburger musical.

LOL?

Hey, I'm sure the first marketing pitch for Sweeney Todd sounded strange, too. "And this barber, see, he lives in London at the turn of the 20th century, and he lives above this woman who makes meat pies, and the barber, see, he kills all these guys, cuts their throats in the barber chair, and then the lady makes pies out of the dead....AND IT'S A MUSICAL."

@otherginger: Would you believe that Sweeney Todd is actually based on a character from English pulp fiction from during the Industrial Revolution?

@Zombie Ms. Skittles: Where can I find this original novel to edumacate myself? I love some Sweeney Todd.

@Zombie Ms. Skittles: That name always popped up in T.S. Eliot poems, which confused the hell out of me in high school, not knowing the character.
