I still don't understand the impulse to musicalize this story.
I agree. I've done a production of another version out there (by Rick Cummins and John Scoullar) which had an interesting and sometimes really beautiful score, but I think the essential problem is that it's not an active story. Not much actually happens - it's idea-centered, not action-centered. I think it works as a book, where one can imagine it visually in one's head - but as a theatre piece...I'm just not sure it's crying out to be theatricalized. |
