I mean, where do I even begin to describe the awesomeness that is the news of the forthcoming Spice Girls musical? Well, okay, I won't—because it's being done by Judy Craymer, who produced Mamma Mia!, which pretty much sucked. Yeah, I said it. SUCKED. (And, yes, I saw it on the stage.)Here's some info from ABC on it:
"Producer Judy Craymer says her company will create and produce a new stage musical based on the songs of the girl-power group whose recordings have sold more than 75 million copies.Well, alright, if they include "Holler" and "Tell Me Why," I'll probably go see it. But I'll be drunk.
The show is tentatively titled, Viva Forever. No production timetable was announced Thursday. Craymer will produce Viva Forever with American Idol creator Simon Fuller..."
