Star Wars Trilogy MIT Musical
ArtieLange writes "The MIT Musical Theatre Group will be staging a musical version of the
Star Wars Trilogy (Eps. IV through VI). There will be tap-dancing stormtroopers, singing Ewoks, etc." Apparently tickets are available if you're in the Boston area over the next week. Hopefully someone has the decency to stealth a digital camera in and post torrents before the premiere so it can be just like the features. There's no way it can be the worst Star Wars related thing out there (currently a tie between the Christmas Special and Episode I) even tho the music credits list Elton John and Andrew Loyd Webber along side John Williams.
After about 6 edits once it hit the front page, yes, it does hint that it may be a joke (still isn't very clear, imho). The first iterations, though, do not (the sentence was what I originally quoted).
Good quote, too many chars. Seriously, the slashdot 120 char limit sucks!

eh.. that's all I can come up with, nothing he put out in the 90's is worth playing.. Clearly there's some more scenes that need representation, perhaps "I don't want to go on with you like that" could go with the scene where Luke argues with Vader on CLoud City.. no.. nevermind, I'm done now!
