Somethings in life are not meant to be.
I love broadway.
I love musical theatre.
And I love Earth, Wind and Fire.
But I just read what Hot Feet (the new Earth, Wind and Fire Musical) is about, and I just ask God the simple question. Why?
From broadway.com:
Hot Feet tells the Faustian tale of a beautiful young dancer, Kalimba (Nixon), whose life's dream is to be a Broadway dancer. Kalimba is cajoled to dance with a pair of magical and enchanted red shoes, and when she puts them on, they begin to take control of the talented dancer's fate. The show features a book by Heru Ptah (best known for writing the book A Hip-Hop Story). Earth, Wind and Fire founder Maurice White has written original music and lyrics for Hot Feet, and the show will also feature the group's classic hits, including "Shining Star," "September," "Boogie Wonderland" and "After the Love Has Gone."
I hope that it will be good!
But it won't.
