In light of this discussion about what's an adaptation, check out the trailer below for the brand new GERMAN musical version. Cowboys, gas masks, power pop!

Sorry to say, but that version looks more interesting than what I saw at Williamstown.

OMG. That looks absolutely amazing. Do you know anything about this version? How was it recieved? Clearly, two completey different musicals with very different agendas. It would seem. Would liketo know more about this. Do you anyone who has seen it?

If you google the German title, you can find lots of material -- in German.
There's a CD --- on the Amazon Germany website, there are the usual 30 second samples of each track -- it has a Europop sound to it.

I will commit travesty and say I think that's more interesting and innovative at the very least.
