Tilda Swinton In Hip Remake Of 'Auntie Mame' Gets Us Thinking: Five Other Musicals That Should Be Updated

While promoting their new film "I Am Love" at the Venice Film Festival, actress-producer Tilda Swinton and director Luca Guadagnino announced plans to collaborate again on a remake of "Auntie Mame," previously reworked as the musical "Mame," Variety reports. The duo has no legitimate rights to the original novel by Patrick Dennis nor either film version; they're merely using this opportunity to send out an "Sos" to Warner Bros. of their intentions to remake the film with Swinton as the titular eccentric who takes in her orphaned nephew.
While it's unclear if their plan is to make another musical version of the story, Guadagnino does say it will be a "rock-n-roll, super funny, super mainstream movie," implying at least a soundtrack-heavy project. Fans of the original film would certainly be more okay with something supplanting the remake, with its forgettable vocal performance by Lucille Ball -- though Bea Arthur devotees may protest.

Will 'West Side Story' be slighted by the Tony Awards yet again?

The Broadway revival of "West Side Story" was greeted with mixed reviews today. This groundbreaking show is the third of four musicals to come back to Broadway this season. As the previous two — "Pal Joey" and "Guys and Dolls" — were also critical disappointments, that means that 1969 also-ran "Hair" could establish itself as the front-runner for best musical revival at the Tony Awards when it opens next week. "West Side Story" has had little luck with the Tonys in its three previous Broadway incarnations.
Back in 1957, this musical updating of "Romeo and Juliet" electrified audiences with its daring blend of song and dance. However, it failed to prevail at the Tony Awards, losing four of its six bids. The two Tonys it did win went to director Jerome Robbins, who picked up the second of an eventual three awards for choreography, and Oliver Smith, who earned the second of his eventual seven awards for scenic design.

The Tony Award-winning Oregon Shakespeare Festival opens its 74th year the weekend of February 20-22 and celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Elizabethan Stage. In honor of that milestone, Osf is dedicating the 2009 season to principal theatre and scenic designer, Richard L. Hay, acknowledging his creative work that spans more than 50 years at Osf and includes the design of all three theatre spaces, beginning with the current Elizabethan Stage in 1959, half a century ago.
"I am deeply moved as I reflect on the achievement and commitment of our extraordinary theater artist, Richard Hay," Osf Artistic Director Bill Rauch said, "whose dedication to our artform and to Osf is an inspiration to all of us. The remarkable spaces he designed allow for a connection between actors and audiences that make Osf's theater experience unique and richly satisfying. And he remains an unstoppable creative force, designing scenery for two world premiere adaptations
