Last night, just before going to bed, I caught the end of the Graham Norton show. On it, Norton was interviewing Lord Lloyd-Webber. I don’t usually have much time for him, but Lloyd-Webber was talking about his new musical based on Jack Black’s film, School Of Rock. That gave me an idea: what about a musical based on or about the Paraorchestra? I think I mooted the idea of a film about them a while ago (that predictably got nowhere), but it occurs to me that a musical might work better. After all, it would be about a group of people with disabilities who find the means to express themselves through music. It could chart their formation, rise, and participation in the paralympics. Not only that, but it would presumably give some much needed jobs to disabled stage actors. Perhaps Lloyd-webber himself could write the score.

Just one of my silly little ideas, and as usual I have no idea where to go with it, but I thought it worth noting on here.
