...although I doubt there will be any Chevy Chase
…….and its opening in Seattle
Deadline reports,
characters from the National Lampoon's Vacation will star in their very own musical adaption titled Broadway Vacation The Musical. The Griswolds will take the stage at Seattle's 5th Avenue Theatre starting this fall with a book, music and lyrics by David Rossmer and Steve Rosen. Donna Feore will choreograph and direct, with Ken Davenport producing. The cast and plot details have not yet been announced at this time.
“We could not be more thrilled to create the world premiere of this joyfully riotous story at The 5th,” 5th Avenue Artistic Director Bill Berry said in a statement. “I can’t wait to begin our 2020/21 season with a bang and for Seattle’s incredibly smart and savvy audiences to once again play an important role in the development of a new piece of the musical theater canon.”
“I couldn’t think of a better place for the Griswolds to start their journey to Broadway than the 5th Avenue Theater. Can’t wait to throw our bags in the family truckster and head to Seattle!” Davenport added.
