Don't Tell David Bratman
LOTR to Be Musical
Fresh from its runaway success at the Oscars, fantasy epic Lord of the Rings is set to hit the stage as a lavish musical, reports say.
Producers are planning to turn the book series into the most expensive musical ever seen in London, according to the Sunday Telegraph.
News of the musical version comes weeks after the final film installment of the trilogy, Return Of The King, won 11 Academy Awards.

A musical. And with time added for songs, it should run, oh, about 14 hours, give or take a biobreak or two.
