June 16, 2025

IT MIGHT not seem the most obvious inspiration for a musical. But Titanique - a comedy based on the sinking of the Titanic - is now set to open the prestigious Champs Élysées Film Festival in Paris tomorrow night.

- MEG JORSH

The cult stage hit retells the story of James Cameron's 1997 film from the perspective of Celine Dion. Here MEG JORSH takes a look at some more unlikely musicals...

A SLENDERMAN MUSICAL

He's a folk tale for the internet age - a thin, unnaturally tall humanoid with a featureless white face, wearing a black suit.

Tales of the sinister Slender Man been around on forums since 2009, So of course, in 2015 he got his own musical, released as a three-act audio album by Paul Shapera.

HUMAN CENTIPEDE: THE MUSICAL!

You might think there's nothing more shocking than the Human Centipede movies. They all involve a mad surgeon stitching people together, mouth to anus, to form the titular arthropod.

But imagine if it started singing? Thanks to writers Liam Hartley and Oliver Catton, you don't have to.
