Casting Announced for Gilligan's Island: The Musical
Playbill News: "'Beginning with the #1 TV theme song of all time,' press notes for the new musical state, 'Gilligan, The Skipper, Mary Ann, Ginger, The Professor, and The Millionaire and his wife are shipwrecked and trying to get off the island. Natural disasters befall them, hurricanes, quicksand, etc., as they learn to get along and survive. Their biggest challenge comes from the U.F.O. and its Alien, who monitors their behavior. By the end of the play, the castaways manage to defeat the extraterrestrial and save the entire planet, while staying marooned themselves.'"

When I look at these blogs every week I feel like I'm seeing more and more revivals or musical or theatrical adaptations of shows/stories/movies/etc that have already been done. It's not that I have anything against people taking their own spin on some old stuff, its just that I think we really need to see some new work.
