Octomom Gets Her Own Musical

No subject, it seems, is too strange for musical theater. We've had musicals on the tabloids' Bat Boy, the failed sex-change candidate Hedwig and the neither-vampiric-nor-transgender (as far as we know) Eddie Money.

Now comes no-joke news of 'Octomom the Musical,' in production in Los Angeles, and set to premiere July 18. Writer-director Chris Voltaire promises 14 new songs based on the story of Nadya Suleman, the California baby mama who used in-vitro fertilization to give birth to octuplets in January. Good thing he's writing his own songs: 'Twenty Tiny Fingers' doesn't tell the half of it.
