What to do with Bin Laden? http://www.halfbake...th_20Bin_20Laden_3f
An earlier attempt at a halfbaker-composed musical with songs by lewisgirl, Guy Fox, Unabubba (obviously), beauxeault, 1percent, Mephista, lsenater, DrBob, and myself. [pottedstu, Jul 04 2002, last modified Oct 05 2004]

       tw - give us a vague plot outline and is it going to be a stage or film musical, and who on earth would back it? (and shouldn't the idea be in HB:alternative forms?)

       The plot concerns the attempts of a brilliant young computer scientist to construct a forum for intellectual debate, whilst being attacked on all sides by trolls, hackers, server failures and custard-based projectiles.   

       Every good musical must have the following elements, however I leave it up to the rest of you how to fit them in: Nazis, the afterlife, matchmaking, transsexuals, gangsters, lord high executioners and nannies. Oh, and at least one list song.

       Those who think this would be a good idea might like to read "What to do with Bin Laden?", our noble re-write of the Sound of Music and assorted other songs. One hesitates to say "Baked", but certainly there are lyrics by UnaBubba. (*sigh* whatever happened to lewisgirl? we had fun when she was around.)

       She's off somewhere buying shoes.

       'stu: It would be quite easy to get the Nazi's into it. The name 'Jutta' is the German pet name for 'Judith', and 'Judith' means 'Woman From Judea', in other words, a Jew. Its so simple, why didn't you think of it first?   

       Matchmaking is simple. po is //TOTALLY SMITTEN WITH A FELLOW HALFBAKER//   

       The afterlife could be a dream sequence of the perfect Half-Bakery.   

       The gangster could be trolls and what not.   

       The lord high executioner is PeterSealy.   

       nannies, i'm having trouble with. Can't you just cut them?

       Realy, i thought it was your nose?

       nannies may be hard to find, but we certainly have enough ninnies... (groan)

       I'm extremely relieved to see that nobody has suggested modifying the titles of well-known Broadway songs and musicals along Halfbakery lines.

       ... yet.   

       Besides, you'd just end up with a lot of dreadful puns, like HBesque Pinafore ...
8th of 7, Nov 08 2013
  

       I still think this would have been a great idea.
