Jack & Diane, The Musical
I thought this was interesting. You know the old song from John Mellencamp titled ‘Jack & Diane’ that came out way back in 1982? Well he’s turning it into a musical with Kathleen Marshall to direct and choreograph. She’s a winner of 3 Tonys out of nine nominations so this should be good.
The backers of the musical had this to say
“This is a story about those people who live, love and die on the underside of the American Dream in small towns all across our country. This is a tale, laced with humor and visceral energy, about star-crossed lovers, and their stubborn refusal to give up, to lie down, to let go of the potential their youthful dreams once promised.”
