"Neko Case has been working on a musical adaptation of the 1991 movie Thelma & Louise for years, and now it's finally got a premiere date. The show will make its debut this fall in London at the Young Vic Theater."
"As far as adaptations go, this one is about as true to the original as it gets regarding its creators. The original Thelma & Louise screenplay writer, Callie Khouri, penned the book, while Case handled the music and lyrics."
""I will be in London most of the summer helping put on the finishing touches and rehearsing. (no, I'm not performing.) I am so proud of everyone and I hope you will join us if you can. Fingers crossed, everybody! Here goes! XO""
Neko Case's musical adaptation of the 1991 film Thelma & Louise is set to premiere at the Young Vic Theater in London. The show runs from September 3 to October 24, with tickets available soon. Callie Khouri, the original screenplay writer, wrote the book, while Case created the music and lyrics. Trip Cullman directs the production. Case expressed her excitement about the project and her involvement in the summer preparations, emphasizing her pride in the team and the adaptation's alignment with the film's themes.
