Now that disclaimers may be established to everyone's specifications...

So, earlier today I was, in my own inscrutable way, creating a playlist made of various numbers from some good musicals on Youtube, while listening (don't we all) to film-scores (some of which are, in fact, musicals), and the orchestral cover (by OminousVoice) passed through my mind.

That got me thinking*.

Thundercats: the Musical

Dudes! Seriously! Thundercats: the Musical! WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN DONE YET. It'd be like a combination of Thundercats, Cats, and Lion King on Broadway! I am a genius*!

Anyway: discuss.

**Note: be aware, that I have not actually heard this song, as of this posting (although I almost certainly have later), however it's the best fit I could find for the wishy-washiness displayed above.

Thundercats could be a really fun musical... We've already got a great musical main theme as well as character themes for each of the mains. If someone could write some good songs that tie into a coherent, stageable plot, I'd certainly enjoy watching. I could also see making use of a lot of talented Ray Park-style staged combat and Cirque-de-soleil-style acrobatics. A trick would be finding talented enough singer-actor-acrobats for the mains... Ah,well... It's fun dreaming...
