Ashley Tisdale and Lucas Grabeel want it all

Here’s a little short and fun piece from High School Musical 3 “Senior Year” by Ashley Tisadale and Lucas Grabeel. They obvious look like they have graduated two years before but I guess that’s the problem of make-up and wardrobe. And yes, it’s still good.

Wicked Coming to Big Screen

The popular and totally wicked Broadway musical Wicked is moving on to big screen, following other successful musicals such as Chicago, Hairspray and Mama Mia!

According to Paybill News, this new production will be handled by Marc Platt Productions for Universal Pictures: “Universal Pictures production president Donna Langley told the industry paper, “Our goal now is absolutely to make the Wicked film, but much like Judy Craymer wouldn’t give up screen rights to Mamma Mia! until the stage show had reached its pinnacle, Marc and Stephen Schwartz are very mindful of the right timing. But we’re dying to do it.”

Below is the clip Defying Gravity from the musical by the London cast. Just to remind you how amazing the musical is:

Ugly Betty: The Musical

Rumors are floating around that ABC’s fun and over dramatic TV show Ugly Betty might be hitting Broadway in the near future. Michael Urie, who plays the gay assistant Marc says “They do want to do an “Ugly Betty” musical, a full-on Broadway musical, but it’s all hush-hush. I think it would be great, and they should use the cast from the show. I think we would all do it, although we maybe don’t dance and sing as well as professional singers and dancers. I think it would be fun for us to do it for a while, and then they could get real people in. They definitely want to do an episode that is a musical one, but then they want to do a full stage show. I think it’s a great idea. It would definitely work.”

Sounds like a bunch of fun eh?
