Sire, There are certain goings on around this place, that I wish to tell you I do not admire!

I would LOVE that.   But only after PRINCESS BRIDE the Musical.  I've been waiting forever for that.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Isn't that just Kiss me Kate?

Sort of ironic that the "subject" of this thread is not located in the part of the form marked "Subject," and to LizzieCurry's point, if we were on the subject somewhere, wouldn't that be the place to continue said subject rather than subject everyone to it?

Sadly, don't hold your breath on Princess Bride. William Goldman was very protective of the property, and turned down an adaptation commissioned by Andy Karl (who was to play Westley). Another one composed by Adam Guettel may never see the light of day due both to Goldman's reticence, and Guettel's increasingly controversial right-wing leanings.
