Ah, the world is a very strange place ...
The Storm Theater in New York will be premiering a live musical version of The Last Starfighter from October 15 - 30th. No, I'm not making this up. It even sounds as though they're sticking close to the film's plot - check out the synopsis from Storm's site:
An 18-year-old with an uncertain future, Alex becomes the master of a video game only to discover that it was put on Earth as a testing ground by Centauri, a huckster trying to save his vulnerable galaxy and make a little money in the process. Centauri offers Alex membership in an elite cadre of space pilots charged with protecting the universe.Alex must find a way to reach his potential, while a great danger looms out in space, waiting for him....
Via Tagliners, where they also have a link to this song from the Silence of the Lambs musical. Really. I'm not making that up either.
