Other Jukebox Musical Ideas


It seems that today's Broadway musicals are either Grammy winning CDs or odes to musical entertainers.

So, I thought I would share my ideas on possible CDs to make into musicals.

Ricky Martin- Ricky Martin: This musical could be about a young Latino man coming out in the 1980s


Lil Kim - Hardcore: This story could be created around a teen girl trying to survive in the mean streets of Hunts Point in the Bronx.

N.W.A. - Straight Outta Compton: Four boys living in South Central, Los Angeles.

Dep Leppard- Hysteria: A coming of age story of a boy in some Mid-Western town.


U2 - The Joshua Tree: The songs in this great album could give us any story.


Janet Jackson - Rhythm Nation 1814: This musical could be about racial injustice
Any ideas?

JJ and U2 I'm feeling the most! U2 songs are so inspirational and visual.

I'm very laid back and easy going. I like to meet people, read, talk about politics, culture and life. I am a huge comic book fan (X-Men family and Wonder Woman) I also want to say that I am a proud black gay man...no 'down low' drama here
