Following in the footsteps of hit musical adaptations Billy Elliot , Wicked , and Bring It On: The Musical , Universal’s stage adaptation of John Landis’ s Animal House will hit Broadway with a book by playwright Michael Mitnick, to be directed by Book of Mormon ‘s Casey Nicholaw, with music by the guys who sang the indelible lyrics “Chickity China the Chinese chicken/You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin’.” Because nothing says “Broadway” like frat boys and crunchy Canadian alt-rock, right?
