Something Rotten!
omg a musical song about COMPLAINING ABOUT WRITING
My whole life I have been waiting for this. MY WHOLE LIFE.OH MY WORD
YES.
The whole song is worth hearing, and the whole musical has plenty of gems.
It’s called “Something Rotten” and follows a rival playwright to Will Shakespeare, who pays a fortune-teller to look into the future and tell him what Shakespeare’s greatest play would be so he can write it himself before Shakespeare gets to it.
The fortune-teller mistakes “Hamlet” for “Omelet,” and shenanigans, naturally, ensue.
