OMG It Wasn't A Dream, DDR Musical Is Real
When we first reported on the Dance Dance Revolution musical, I was sure it would end up as a rumor that would never surface as real. Surely there was no way a group of people would create an entire stage show based on every poorly coordinated gamer's nightmare. Oh how wrong I was. Our buddies over at Kotaku have posted the first pictures from the show. As you can see from the snapshot, the musical is more Xanadu than Wicked, and it looks so very flamboyant. If you've seen the show, please please please send us some details, I've gotta know more about DDR: The Musical.
This got me thinking, what other games should be turned into musicals? Rhapsody and Final Fantasy X-2 are a given, but what about Fallout 3 with a backing choir of ghouls, or Gears of War focusing on the love between ruff and tumble soldiers? Actually, I've got to go, I have a brilliant idea that I need to hammer out. Look for Carmen SanDiego: The Musical coming to a theater space near you!

We can look for Carmen SanDiego musical all we want but we'll never find it!
Monkey Island would be a fun musical...I can see the 4th wall breaking a lot ala Urinetown.
Maybe this is old news, but Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney is being adapted by the Takarazuka Revue in Japan--->
