Bring It On, the cheerleading franchise which just had a fifth installment hit DVD shelves this month, is now getting a musical! Yes! Set 2011 as the date that Claire from Heroes will probably ditch the show and star in this. She already headlined one of the sequels!
Lin-Manuel Miranda and Tom Kitt — recent Tony winners for “In the Heights” and “Next to Normal,” respectively — will compose the music, with Amanda Green (“High Fidelity”) providing lyrics. Jeff Whitty (“Avenue Q”) pens the book.
Andy Blankenbuehler, choreographer of “Heights” and “9 to 5,” will get his first director-choreographer credit with the production. “Heights” alum Alex Lacamoire will be orchestrator, arranger and music supervisor.
