An Empire Records Musical Is Really Happening

Smart

By Shel Silverstein

My dad gave me one dollar bill
'Cause I'm his smartest son,
And I swapped it for two shiny quarters
'Cause two is more than one!


And then I took the quarters
And traded them to Lou
For three dimes -- I guess he didn't know
That three is more than two!


Just then, along came old blind Bates
And just 'cause he can't see
He gave me four nickels for my three dimes,
And four is more than three!

And then I took the nickels to Hiram Coombs
Down at the seed-feed store,
And the fool gave me five pennies for them,
And five is more than four!


And then I went and showed my dad,
And he got red in the cheeks
And closed his eyes and shook his head --
Too proud of me to speak!

Empire Records is about to make a major comeback.  The record store employees from the 1995 classic film is going to be turned into a Broadway musical.  According to sources, it will be produced by Bill Weiner together with Carol Heikkinen, who wrote the original film.

It’s filled with nostalgia for old record stores where you could talk to the workers all day about your shared loved of music and get to know new bands.  The musical will premiere in 2020 in honor of the 25th anniversary of the movie.  There has not been any further detailed released, but we do know that they’ve been working hard.
