LOTR Musical?

Put this in the category of “HUH?!?!” It appears that Lord of the Rings is to become a musical. According to the BBC Online, “Producers of the stage version of The Lord of the Rings have picked the cast – with British actor James Loye landing the role of Frodo. The show will open in Toronto, Canada, in 2006.”

In keeping with tradition(?) of casting gay men as wizards, Brent Carver (a gay Canadian actor) has been cast as Gandalf the Grey. (ModFab)

James

James Nunn keeps himself busy running his business, volunteering when possible, hosting exchange students, sticking his nose into social issues but is generally considered a good guy. He loves to keep track of things using technology. He has a waning social media presence and is an occasional blogger capturing life's little (and big) moments. He was born in Australia, but now lives in New Orleans, Louisiana (USA) with his husband and two dogs.
