Music-genius Stephin Merritt of the Magnetic Fields just opened a new musical based on Neil Gaiman’s Coraline, with no relation to the recent movie.
The heroine has a bit of a more mature look in this version.
The New York Times review that came out earlier this week is a little mixed, but it made me think that I might like it for all its strangeness.
Coraline is playing at the MCC Theater in the West Village through July 5. I’ll be seeing it later this month!
I really want to see that, but I am a sucker for anything that relates to Neil Gaiman’s works!
Coraline was a book I read in 4th grade!
