Untitled Muppets Broadway Musical Concept

Disney is currently considering a Broadway musical starring the Muppets. A 15-minute test presentation was held May 31, 2013 at Disney's New Amsterdam Theater in New York City to see if it would work. The showcase used 85 puppets and "a handful of sets", and used some existing Muppets material, including a performance of "Rainbow Connection" by Kermit. It was directed by Alex Timbers, who had pitched the concept for a potential show to Disney Theatrical. Thomas Schumacher reported that he was "very intrigued" after the demonstration.
