We have recently had biopics musicals for Elton John and Freddie Mercury. Surely Bowie next?
His music certainly lends itself to theatre, and his videos can be recreated on stage.
I envisage a life story, with snapshots of different ages and personas, interspersed with philosophical monologues.
Starting with his mime work, and ending with constructing his final video. In-between there can be focuses on his mental breakdowns, Let’s Dance success, avant-garde flops and being number 1 with his morbid last album.
Costumers would be gagging. You’d need a lot of dancers. The lead would have to be extraordinary, but surely can be found from all the tribute acts out there?
