Wolverine : The Musical ( aka The Puppet Show)

[jo]

I've stumbled upon this creative tribute to Wolverine, via a musical >

www.thatericalper.com/2013/07/17/wolverine-the-musical-with-puppets/


I've identified only 3 of the original songs ( on which the new Wolvie lyrics are now attached) --


*Put On Your Sunday Clothes (Hello Dolly)

*Oh What A Beautiful Mornin' (Oklahoma!)

*Music of the Night (Phantom of the Opera)


The rest? One's at the tip of my ear ( er, tongue) -LOL! Anyone? Ellen ?


Enjoy!

What a clever and fun musical parody. I laughed at the bit about "amazing hair."

The other original songs from which the "tributes" were fashioned were:

"Fugue for Tinhorns" [aka "I Got the Horse Right Here")-- GUYS AND DOLLS and

"Cellblock Tango (aka "He Had It Comin'") -- CHICAGO.

Thanks for posting this, Jo.

LOL - just found what's at the tip of my tongue, before I saw your post ( Thanks!)

I knew it was from Guys and Dolls ( I thought it might be Rocking the Boat initially - wrong!)...I vaguely remembered there was a " Paul Revere" in the lyrics...

Then I found this clip --

"Horse Right Here!"

My fave moments --

*When he cuts off Spidey's head wolverine

*When he goes deep into his character -- better than The Phantom smiley-happy036


And for the first time, "Jackson" would have been the right spelling ( Jackman 5 ) cancan


Btw, the video has attracted a lot of attention on YouTube - enjoyed reading the comments. Some Broadway fans over there - with a fondness for the theatre just like our Ellen!

Btw2 - I have opened a new thread on Broadwayworld with the video blog - also a good chance to plug The Wolverine and talk about Hugh's Times Sq appearance on July 23. ()-- certainly NOT!
