More wine puns from the Twitterverse #winemusicals
Happy Friday! A little light programming for your today. Yesterday, I spotted a meme on Twitter using the hashtag #indecisivemusicals that included such suggestions as “Rent … no maybe we should buy.” With the Andrew Lloyd Webber wine auction coming up this weekend, I wondered on Twitter if we needed some #winemusicals? I proposed “The Full Monte Bello” and “Gentlemen Prefer Brunes et Blondes.” Here are some of other chuckle (or groan?) worthy suggestions:
“Oaklahoma!” @ablegrape (by Rolland & Hammerstein?)
“My Fair Lieu-dit” @ablegrape
“Sunday in the Park with Nuits Saint Georges” @felixsalmon
“Guys and Dolcettos” @howardggoldberg
“St Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” @davidwlamb
“The Musar Man” @Tri_pops
Search for more and add your own in the comments or on Twitter. And let us know if you hear of the opening of any of these shows, presumably well off-Broadway.

Okay, that’s pretty bad. Sorry.

Is this the production starring Corton MacRae? He does such a great version of “Sherry with the Fringe on Top”

Jill- I had a similar thought with Catpeetown, the musical… starring Sauvignon Blanc

On Twitter, I had “Les Miserablegrape” for Doug as well as “The Phantom of the Epernay”.
Though not strictly a musical, my favorite Broadway/wine mashup is “The Pupitre of the Penis”.

Seems to me that, while Randall gets plenty of attention already, “Bonnydoon” is the logical stand-in for Brigadoon.
I’d add 1776: Directed by Hardy Rodenstock!
Perhaps Robert Parker’s favorite: Man of La Landonne

Julius Caesar Domenisco was an inventor with a patent on a process for brewing beer and wine. But then someone else developed a better way, and as brewers converted, he lost a lot of royalty income. When his best friend converted, he said “Et tu brew thus?”
