A Broadway musical based on National Lampoon's Animal House? Hey, why not? And I can already imagine the promotions: Half-price tix on Toga Night if you come dressed in a bedsheet. Or they'll do it like a Gallagher concert and the first three rows will be wearing trash bags to protect their clothes during the Food Fight.
Interesting, by the way, that that film has somehow become "the 1978 John Belushi comedy." I seem to recall him having star billing on it but nowhere near as much screen time as some of the other players.
The score is being written by the rock band, Barenaked Ladies. I'm guessing that's to supplement a couple of songs from the movie. They can't leave out "Shout," can they?
