Silence of the Lambs
(Actually, click HERE for details.)
Heck, I thought it was a pretty bad idea to attempt a musical adaptation of Les Miserables (and boy, was I wrong!), or Phantom of the Opera (and boy, was I right!). So I'll just let you make up your own mind on this one.

post a commentI don't know. Some how it doesn't seem that strange to me. But then I have long accepted that contemporary theater has a very wide bizarre streak. What with Sweeney Todd and all, why should a musical version of Silence of the Lambs seem strange? As far as I am concerned, the weirdest idea for an adaptation is still early Hollywood's silent movie version of La Boheme. Go figure that one. Anyway, with respect to the musical stage, I am still waiting for someone to take up my idea of a musical version of Sophie's Choice, to be called Sophie!. I thought that an adaptation of the Lovin' Spoonful's "Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind?" would be a great number for it.
Whenever I watch "Monk" I think, as soon as Captain Stottlemeyer says his first words of the episode...
"and then it rubs the lotion on itself"
It really ruins the show. That weird voice. I always expect to see moths.
OH NOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!
I have always liked Monk a lot. And -- until now -- it had never occurred to me that Capt. Stottlemeyer & Jame Gumb were one in the same.
Wow, thanks. Sheesh. Next you'll tell me that the youngest daughter on Little House on the Prairie grew up to . . . .
Ah, forget it.
