Theater Review - 'Coraline' - Musical Adaptation of Children’s Novel at the Lucille Lortel Theater - NYTimes.com

So, Neil Gaiman’s “Coraline” was made into a movie. And it was great!

Then, Neil Gaiman’s “Coraline” was made into a musical. And, according to all the reviews, it was…not so great.

After some deep thinking and research, I think I’ve come up with the reason. Be warned, it’s not easy to follow, but do your best:

Mystery solved.

Thank you.

Leif writes words, music, code and bug reports; somehow he's still sane.

Nickherder is a science and engineering kind of guy, but we forgive him for it.

SaRRa is using her fancy university degree to blog.
