Star Wars The Musical? Posted By Mike on February 19, 2008
From The Signal (The College of New Jersey student newspaper):
"There are a lot of fantastic movies and plays that have already been or have the potential to be turned into musicals. Most of these had that spark, that element to make one think, "Gee, that would make a great musical!"
TCNJ Musical Theater (TMT) is daring the world to respond to its newest project: the insanity and absolute creativity that is "Star Wars! The Musical."
"We were asked to do it for another school, but that didn't pan out so we're doing it here," John Fischer, College alumnus and co-writer of "Star Wars! The Musical," said when asked why he and his partners chose "Star Wars."
"It was a creative outlet," Dave Breidenstine, a co-writer and senior from Temple University, added.
On Friday, Nov. 16, TMT presented a reading of the recently completed musical. Despite the play's length (the audience was asked to complete a survey to help cut parts they didn't like) it was amazing how practically every other word had the audience in hysterics.
The ridiculous dialogue riffed on the amount of time that has passed since the original movies were made, featuring lines like: "If we're so technologically advanced, why do we have to go to a bar to find a pilot? Can't we just do a Google search?"'
UPDATE: Just got an e-mail from Joe who happens to be playing in the orchestra for "Star Wars! The Musical". He wanted to pass along that the show will be running at The College of New Jersey on March 27, 28, 29, and 30th. He also said that anyone wanting more information can feel free to e-mail him: Joey225@aol.com
Big thanks to Joe, not only for the update, but for helping out those looking to learn more about the show.

They will remain for sale in the store for anybody that still wishes to purchase them. Details after the jump.
