According to a brief piece in
yesterday's Post, the latest hot property from
the 80s headed to the Broadway stage as a lavish musical will be
Cocktail ('88), with an adaptation by Heywood Gould, who wrote the original screenplay, to be produced by
Marty Richards. There's no word yet on who will star, but so long as they serve drinks throughout the performance—which, obviously, they pretty much have to—does it really matter? I hope one of the musical numbers involves people in giant
cocktail bottle suits jumping on trampolines. (
