I don't think this will go through, but if it does, they should do a portrayal of Craig's Bond singing his tales of woe.

Oh dear god what a bad idea.

Merry Saltzman? Her family is involved? Are they getting along with the Broccolis?

Chief of Staff, 007's gone round the bend. Says someone's been trying to feed him a poisoned banana. Fellow's lost his nerve. Been in the hospital too long. Better call him home.

"[snip]... and therefore no James Bond stage show may be produced without their permission."

Looking at the recent films, I wouldn't be surprised if EON allowed this musical to happen.

I think if they did, they'll want to do it themselves, rather than have another company reap the profits. Assuming it made a profit, which is a big assumption given the overall negative reaction.

Quite right. Only EON are allowed to ruin the brand. :wink:
