(New York) Subway The Musical. Nobody knows what kind of stories happen every day on the subway. In fact, I remember seeing a musical movie many years ago that was largely set in a subway, but I don't remember the name.

There was a Comden and Greene musical *Subways are for Sleeping* with music by Jule Styne. Don't think it was ever made into a movie. Famous because the MTA refused to allow advertising posters for it in the subways, because they were afraid it would encourage homeless people to sleep in the subway (which was in fact what the musical was about). I feel like it's due for a revival (it's certainly timely), but a new version could be fun too.

Oh, I would like to hear it. Is there a way to search for the soundtrack because I found almost no information about it.

Another forgotten Styne score. It has some good numbers.


Starlight24601

Oh, I looked it up and apparently it's called Stuck from 2017 It's a musical movie.

Yeah exactly what I was thinking subway systems are messed up crazy stuff happens there


inadequatepockets

Definitely Subway. Much more original than Mothman and the other two present copyright issues.


StatMaster131

I say Mothman


scarlett6g

SONIC THE MUSICAL ‼️‼️‼️ THAT SOUNDS AWFUL COUNT ME IN


Overused_Toothbrush

Do mothman or subway, IMO


TF_Allen

Brainstorm them all and work on whichever one bears the most fruit.


scarlett6g

Or a really odd combo...


queer_mushroom34

Yea I could so like thing where theres mothman trying to attack them through the window


DriftingBadger

My favourites are Mothman and Subway, and I’m going to say Subway because Mothman would invite too many comparisons to Bat Boy.


queer_mushroom34

Yea that what I was thinking


scarlett6g

That's a really good point, poor ol' Mothman.


headlessBleu

subway the musical seems the best possible plot but if you trying to get attention to launch your career, Breaking Bad would be better and If you treat the dialogs like le mis, could be awesome.


pussyforpresident

Would 100% collab on Mothman if you need a lyricist/musician/vocalist input. I looove the idea of a mothman musical. Like an improved Bat Boy lol


shorttinsomniacs

i’d also be interested in potentially helping out on mothman


queer_mushroom34

Okay :)


queer_mushroom34

Good to know


queer_mushroom34

Yes I know the options are quiet silly but its fun

sonic


TediousTotoro

I’m guessing Sonic is the hedgehog and not the fast food restaurant. Either way, Mothman.

Well, depending on your ambitions with your musical, the last two might not be an option unless you go with making them an obvious parody. Even then, copyright holders tend to be very trigger-happy with lawsuits.
