I'm sat here daydreaming and wondering what a musical based on Mumsnet would look like....

I'm envisaging various songs based on threads such as...

A wedding invitation with poem (no children invited either)
Brian from Hull
Lunch box content arguments with an actual bun fight
Penis cleaning tips (Penis Beaker)

A bad guy named Jeffery who likes to hack Mumsnet

Any other song suggestions? Who should star in it?

'ucm is that youuuuu'

westcoastnortherneragain · 27/01/2017 22:07

Gin should probably feature in it.... or sponsor it

Oh and just out of my sheer respect for the woman, we need someone wandering on stage for each 'scene' to give her words of wisdom.... that woman is Worra Grin

westcoastnortherneragain · 27/01/2017 22:09

An evil Daily Mail journalist could lurk between the songs

Penetration Man HAS to feature!!

Patriciathestripper1 · 27/01/2017 22:09

Oooo I could do a number on my pole dancing pole Smile

Hedgehog80 · 27/01/2017 22:10

Perhaps I could do a violin solo ......Grin

minionsrule · 27/01/2017 22:10

Oh and a wedding scene
With no children in sight
Except for one woman who has sneaked in her babe cos he is BF don't you know
Song along the lines of 'won't somebody think of the children'

beanfilledfish · 27/01/2017 22:11

the mouldies uprising could be a kind of 'do you hear the people sing'

Braceybracegirl · 27/01/2017 22:14

I have nothing to contribute but this is so funny.

Akire · 27/01/2017 22:14

Has to be how to I get my child into my local primary school when catchment area is size of holo hoop number.

Fancy number with hoovers and mops, should we get a cleaner.

My child has nits nits nits,
I'm in bits bits bits......

minionsrule · 27/01/2017 22:14

And yes to Pombears, dancing ala Barney the Dinosaur.

Maybe also school gate drama as well.

westcoastnortherneragain · 27/01/2017 22:15

Ooh how about a song called "He's a Cocklodger"

SalemsCat · 27/01/2017 22:15

Brexiteers versus remainers scrap a la west side story.

BrieAndChilli · 27/01/2017 22:16

There would have to be a character called Wendy
There would need to be a parking argy bargy scene

BrieAndChilli · 27/01/2017 22:16

Oh and a dream sequence about Maui and/or a Mexican house thief.

BuntyFigglesworthSpiffington · 27/01/2017 22:19

You know those two old guys Waldorf and Stadtler from the Muppet Show who sit up in their box and say that everything is shit? A lot of MNers would be auditioning for their part.

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 27/01/2017 22:22

There has to be a slobbery dog or two,preferably a Pomeranian and a fluffy retriever beaten into submission while the chorus sings And a hero comes alooooong....

NotTheMrMenAgain · 27/01/2017 22:28

OMG PBear I completely forgot about T-Rexing! Yes, we should definitely have a T-Rexing chorus line. I've already got an inflatable T-Rex costume....

And maybe a scene where a woman (probably in her PJs) is crying with laughter and trying to explain why to her DH, who is just pulling a face like this Confused

Katymac · 27/01/2017 22:32

Well:
A) this is going be over 5 or 6 nights (never mind 2) &
B) I thought someone started writing it several years back

minionsrule · 27/01/2017 22:33

To add onto 'NottheMrMenAgain' idea - maybe the woman in her PJ's could be in Tesco..... with someone looking on disgusted as she shops in her PJ's

minionsrule · 27/01/2017 22:34

Oh oh and we have to have someone at some point doing a Daily Fail sad face Sad

Flingmoo · 27/01/2017 22:40

There would be a Moulin Rouge esque number featuring the Just Shaggers.

Panto style baddie = Gina Ford (boo hiss), and a special appearance from Marie Kondo and Fly Lady (fairy godmothers) who swoop in to help the Cinderalla-like SAHM drowning in housework.

Flingmoo · 27/01/2017 22:42

Can we also have an uplifting number with a giant hospital bag as a set piece being packed? It's basically a featured thread once every month or so Grin
