Thank you for having me.
Well, it's kind of crazy.
I had the idea for this almost 25 years ago.
And it was while I was watching the movie An American Werewolf in London, of all things, one of my favorite movies.
And it opens with two friends hiking through the desert.
the wilderness and they're hiking over the countryside.
And I suddenly thought, wow, the opening to this is very much like the opening to Brigadoon.
And then I thought, what if these two modern guys, instead of stumbling on a town that has a werewolf stumbled on a town that was in a musical?
And that was the germ of the idea, but I didn't really know what to do with it.
So it was one of those that I just filed away.
But what really cracked it for me was, oh, instead of two friends, it should be a couple.
So that it is more of a romantic comedy and it can be more about what does love mean?
What's true love really mean?
I think that's why for 25 years, nothing happened with it because it was, it needed that addition to really crack it.
Well, I thought it was really important.
I mean, first of all, it's really funny to have someone who hates musicals be stuck in a musical.
But also for him to be the eyes and ears of the people, unlike me, who don't love musicals.
And in many ways, that was Ken.
And in many ways, it's my wife.
I'll tell you, Ken and I played music all the time when we were writing, and whatever musical theater song would somehow pop up in my mix, he would say, skip.
