Adaptation + Trends

Proposal: Taylor Swift Jukebox Musical

Why? I think it would be successful and sell a lot of tickets

The style of the show would follow the style of the albums. The show would start out as a teenage girl’s pop dream and slowly get darker and more poignant.

Plot: Lead female goes through throwaway boy after boy until she realizes all she needs is self-love and her #squad

For who? Taylor Swift fans, parents that have been dragged along

Where? Standard proscenium arch theatre, lots of seating possibly a theater styled to look like a concert
