Happy New Year of 2020, readers everywhere! Yep, as promised, I'm now FINALLY starting my first story of this new year, "Pinky and The Brain: The Musical"! Yep, the famous "Animaniacs" spin-off cartoon that ran from 1995 to 1998, is FINALLY being turned into another Broadway musical script story of mine! Now, I only got into this cartoon last year in early 2019, so I don't have the nostalgia goggles that most hardcore fans do. But still, its a great show with an interesting premises memorable and funny characters, unforgettable music and songs, over 65 episodes ever made and aired, and an amazing voice cast with many previous and current credits under their belts!

Now, I had a hard time coming up with a plot for this musical. This is because a typical "Pinky and The Brain" episode lasts anywhere between 7, 11, and/or 22 minutes, while most Broadway musicals are usually 2 hours and 30 minutes long (including a 15-minute intermission in the middle). The plot for this musical will not be revealed right now, as I want it to be a surprise to all of you readers. But I will be willing to tell you all this...Unlike my previous musical script story, "Dexter's Laboratory: The Musical", this musical will NOT be just a SINGLE episode expanded upon. Instead, MULTIPLE episodes will be used within this musical. Great idea everyone, isn't it?

Now, it'll be a surprise for all of you in terms of which episodes will be specifically used within the plot of this musical. But, I'm sure that as you all read on and on, you'll realize and be happy about which episodes I decided to combine within this musical! This musical script story of mine will be 2 hours and 30 minutes long, with a 15-minute intermission between Act 1 and Act 2. Now, the musical isn't starting yet, but like last time, we will find out what happens at the "Shubert Theater" on Broadway (the selected theater for this musical) before the show begins. So, let's all get dressed in formal wear, get out our tickets, and enter the theater to get ready for this Broadway musical script story of mine!

(The musical story begins with a helicopter view of the "Shubert Theater", located at 225 W 44th St, New York, NY 10036. Its 6:45pm at night, and the theater's exterior and its marquee is all lit up with white, pink, red, purple, brown, orange, yellow, and black lights, all surrounding a poster of the musical "Pinky and The Brain: The Musical"" placed in the very center of the theater's façade. The story then cuts to the inside of the theater's lobby, as a crowd of over 1,400 men, women, and children theatergoers enter the theater, visit the box office booths, get snacks from the concession stand, and show their tickets before being allowed to enter the main theater room. The lobby is decorated with science lab-themed, such as fake chemistry sets with colorful chemicals, concept art posters for the original "Pinky and The Brain" cartoon, models of Brain's well-known inventions from the cartoon, framed photos of the cartoon's original voice actors, and even fake several stacks of science, math, and chemistry textbooks on display. As everyone enters the main theater through multiple doors, stairways, and entryways, a random theater employee makes an announcement to all people entering the theater...)

Theater employee: Attention all theatergoers, please make sure that you all have your tickets ready to get scanned before you can be allowed to enter the theater! No admittance is allowed after 7:00pm! I repeat, no admittance to the main theater is admitted after 7:00pm sharp! Thank you for your attention and enjoy the show!

(As the guests continue to fill up all 1,460 seats in the main theater, the story cuts to the inside of the main theater room itself. Like all musical theaters on Broadway in New York City, this theater has hundreds of floor seats, balcony seats at the back, and even box seats. The railing of the balcony seats and box seats are covered and decorated with colorful wires, futuristic piping, microchips of all shapes and sizes, and even metal lab piping. The arch (proscenium) around the main stage is surrounded by a massive rectangular purple-blue column/arch resembling the exterior of "ACME Labs" from the "Pinky and The Brain" cartoon, as if a part of the lab building itself was turned into a stage proscenium. Hidden within this decorative proscenium/arch are the hidden speakers that are used to project the voices of the performers all over the theater. The walls surrounding the arch/proscenium are also covered with sheets of purple-blue wall plates, making it look like the walls are also part of the "ACME Labs" building-themed proscenium surrounding the main stage of the "Shubert Theater.

The orchestra pit in front of the stage has all of the musicians inside, ready to play the music in the background during the show. The area around the top of the orchestra pit is surrounded by colorful wires, metal futuristic piping, and colorful LED lights that change color throughout the show. The top of the orchestra pit is covered by a mesh sheet expect for the spot where the conductor stands. The orchestra pit is lit up inside so that the musicians and see what they're doing. Instead of a curtain hiding the set onstage, there is a large banner/backdrop of the exterior of "ACME Labs" painted on it, with the city and skyline of "ACME Falls" from the cartoon "Animaniacs" painted in the background of the laboratory building. This banner located at the very front part of the stage obstructs the main sets onstage and goes up and down whenever the show starts and/or ends. Finally, at 6:58pm at night, all of the seats are full, the theater doors all over are closed up, the main lights in the theater dim, the backdrop of the map lights up a little, and a pre-recorded announcement comes on over the theater's intercom system...)

Pre-recorded male intercom announcement: Ladies and gentlemen; boys and girls, welcome to this performance of "Pinky and The Brain: The Musical", presented to you by "Warner Brothers Animation", "Warner Bros. Theatre Ventures", and directed by Steven Spielberg. The music and lyrics for this show have been written by Richard Stone, and Andrew Lloyd Webber. Please note that this musical contains mild rude humor, perilous situations, and other material that may not be suited for children under the age of 7. We also would like to take this opportunity to remind you that the taking of photographs and the use of cameras or recording devices of any kind is strictly prohibited. Also, please take this time to locate the exit nearest your seat, and turn off all cell phones and pagers. And finally, in cooperation with local fire laws and the management, smoking is not allowed anywhere in the theater. We thank you for your attention and cooperation, and we hope you enjoy the show.

(Everyone in the theater cheers as the intercom turns off and as the conductor enters the orchestra pit, puts on a pair of headphones to hear musical song cues from backstage, and steps up on his stand. The musicians in the orchestra pit begin to tune up their instruments. After 45 seconds of them doing so, they stop doing it, and the show finally begins as its now 7:00pm at night...)

And that is where we shall end this introductory/pre-show announcement portion/page of this brand-new Broadway musical script story of mine! Yep, and it seems that the entire audience of 1,460 men, women, and children of all ages are all comfortably seated in the "Shubert Theater" on Broadway in New York City. Its now 7:00pm at night, and the musical will be 2 hours and 30 minutes (plus a 15-minute intermission) of pure hysterical, musical, and unpredictable fun! The musical script pages will be split up by both Acts and Scenes, just so it's not too much to read all at once, similar to my previous 2 musical script stories.

And yes, since this is a musical, there is going to be several songs within each one of the musical's two acts. And of course, just like my previous 2 musical stories I posted, all of the songs in most of the scenes will be based off of real-life songs from other Broadway stage musicals out there. After I include a song in a scene, I will give credit to the real-life song the musical number is based off of, as well the real-life Broadway show said song is from, all within the concluding author's note at the end of said scene. This is because unlike many talented people out there, I just can't come up with original songs. Sorry, but it's just not my thing.

Anyways, now that all of those disclaimers are out of the way, I'd like to issue a challenge. In the reviews for this page or via private messages to me (GiovanniGo), please tell me and guess which episodes of "Pinky and The Brain" will be utilized in this musical's plot. If you get it right, I will make a mention and shoutout to said author who guessed it correctly in the beginning author's note at the beginning of Act 1, Scene 1 of this brand-new Broadway musical script story of mine! So, without any more further delays, let's all sit back, relax, turn off and put away all of our electronic devices, and let's begin this showing of "Pinky and The Brain: The Musical"!
