Dancey Elfman

I'm a huge fan of Danny Elfman's music. I'm also a big fan of Tim Burton's films. Everyone knows they are frequent collaborators, but one of my faves of these is definitely Edward Scissorhands (by Caroline Thompson (whose adaptation of Patrick Suskind's Perfume I'm very much looking forward to), story by Burton and Thompson).

Well now there's a new way to see that tale, focused a bit more on Elfman's music. Edward Scissorhands as a ballet! I wish I were in London, and hope they bring this to the L.A. stage, where it most belongs. And if any of you UKers out there see this show, let us know what you think of it.

Hat tip: Dude. Man. Phat.
