Something evil’s lurking in the dark
According to Variety James L. Nederlander, president, producer and theater owner at the Nederlander Org, has picked up theatrical rights to produce a musical theater version of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.”
The score will consist of songs from Jackson’s 1982 album “Thriller” as well as from his 1979 LP “Off the Wall.” “Thriller the Musical” will be based on the 1982 “Thriller” video, about a wholesome young couple whose date goes awry when one of them turns into a werewolf.
It’s still early the game for this production. No creative team has been attached yet and there’s not word on when development will begin.
