We Are Seriously Producing Plays Based On Eighties Videos Now?

January 27th, 2009 by Wendie



Michael Jackson is helping develop a stage musical based on his Thriller video.  Plot:  young couple on date, boy turns into werewolf.  In an attempt to stretch the fourteen minute video into a stage production, eight actors will portray The Gloved Perv at various stages of his life.

I’m sorry, but I cannot get my mind around Thriller as a theater production.  Can you imagine?

It’s close to midnight, and something evil’s lurking in the dark,

Chasse, Chasse,ball change

Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart.

pivot, dig, and turn.

Anyway, no word yet on how many pre-pubescent boys have been cast.

Thanks, Sanita!

Video of Eddie Murphy and Michael Jackson in possibly the worst video ever.

    I’m sorry, but I love Michael Jackson’s music. I cannot imagine Thriller being made into a musical (alone). I can however imagine a musical being made from a selection from MJ’s entire discography.

    ok, not to be all correcting you, but as a professional dancer (non-stripper) I have to say there is no step such as “sashay”…it’s “chasse” as in “SHA SAY”. KTHXBAI.
