Thriller: The Musical

NEW YORK (AP) - "Thriller" a Broadway musical?
Producer James L. Nederlander says he has acquired the rights
for a stage version of Jackson's iconic music-video spoof of horror
films. The show will include songs from two of the pop king's
best-selling albums, "Thriller" and "Off the Wall."
"The Nederlanders and Michael Jackson represent live theater
and musical excellence, so let the music begin," Tohme Tohme, a
spokesman for Jackson, said Monday in a statement.
"I love the idea of making 'Thriller' a musical. Girl meets
boy, they fall in love, boy has big secret, now what?" said
Nederlander, head of the company that owns nine Broadway theaters.
No word yet on who will write the book for the show or what
songs will be included in the production, or who will direct and
choreograph.
