David Beckham The Theater of Dreams (actual title)

Yes it's true folks. The musical version of David Beckham's life is now in the works. And what a lovely musical it will be. I thought Legally Blonde The Musical was going to be good, but the story of David Beckham blows that out of the water. With those killer good looks David Beckham can bend it on stage for me whenever he wants.



(This scene will unfortunately not be recreated in the musical.)






The creator and scribe behind this brilliant idea is British dramatist Mark Archer. He was quoted as saying, "His rise from obscurity to international stardom, his universally acknowledged gifts as a supreme sportsman, and his Hollywood lifestyle all have the elements of an aspirational fable." That's for sure. He also went on to say that the musical would include, "powerful, gospel-like rock." I can't imagine wanting to see anything more than the life of David Beckham sung out on stage to "powerful, gospel-like rock" ballads. Simply brilliant.

David Beckham was quoted as saying, "Me thinks me life would make a wonderful musical."
