This is ridiculous. What am I doing here? I'm in the wrong story!

In order to protect the innocent I won't go into details but let's just say there have been at least 5 different shows on the table in as many days and in attempt to not stress myself out about it let's play the "what should we write a musical about?" game!
I think there's the obvious, a childhood growing up in the theatre. But hasn't that been done to death? Or is it ok to still do because nobody has told our story? (By the way I'm not just using the royal "we" I'm sort of figuring that the only people reading this blog are working on this as well... Annie, Alex, Lena...and if you are just reading this for fun bully for you!) A life in the theatre is certainly fodder for some of the classics. But could our angle  be we writing about youth in the theatre specifically? That way schools can do it. It's female heavy. I'm already sold. Or does that make it too 13? 
Anyway, just thoughts for a Wednesday morning.
Pins.
