What Will I Think of Next?

I've decided to begin work on a new project. I think it's time to turn my creative skills towards a musical production loosely based on the life of Britney Spears.Only, my play will only have 1 pregnancy by K-Fed before he dies in a precipitous fall from the top of a Las Vegas casino while he's high on angel dust and unjustified "rapper" ego. Then, Justin Timberlake will re-enter the picture (obviously the first act will cover his innocent, young love for Britney and the time when both their careers seemed on track and they liked to wear coordinating denim outfits), comfort Britney, and rekindle their love leading to the grand finale ostentatious pop wedding in the last scene. (Think pink, pink, and more pink. As well as doves and air guitars.)My strange twisted love for Britney Spears is behind this project, but I am also fully supportive of any production that offers the chance for numerous dance-offs. Not since "West Side Story" and "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo," has the world seen a truly great dance-off. And, the story of Britney's life is rife with opportunities for them. Think about it. There's the dance-off between her and Justin after the break-up, potential K-Fed/Justin match-ups wherein K-Fed attempts break dancing only to fail miserably and show that he will never outshine JT, maybe even a show down between Britney and the reporter character who will represent the media influence in Britney's life (and echo back to a story-telling technique used in "Evita." After all, this play is not to be without an understanding of theater traditions and history.)I think this love was born long ago. After all, I might be one of the only people lucky enough to have seen a dance-off in real life. The summer after 5th grade, at the end of our summer camp talent show, Nicy and Leon Ware decided to have a brother/sister showdown. With only a boombox and stunned white kids trying to clap along to a beat, they danced the rest of our mosquito-filled night away. I can't say I remember the winner; I was just thrilled to see people with rhythm engaged in an activity I thought I would only by lucky enough to witness from afar on USA's "Dance Party" (which I watched every day).Anyway, the title of my currently in-development project is: "White Trash Fantasia."I don't know about you, but I smell a Tony in my future.
