ALBERT, HOWEVER, MAY HAVE TO STAY IN WALNUT GROVE: This may have been inevitable. Half-Pint might come to Broadway. Except now she's a full pint. And she's Ma.
Next month, Melissa Gilbert and Patrick Swayze (as Charles!) will be workshopping "Prairie," a musical version of Little House on the Prairie, with the intention of bringing it to Broadway in the spring of 2008.
So far, I've got the next-to-last number of Act I, "My Friends Call Me Manny," in which Laura lays eyes on Almanzo Wilder for the first time, right before the newly erected church burns down, leaving the nascent pioneer community standing forlorn on the prairie, wondering whether they ever should have left the big woods.
