Scrubs plans musical episode inspired by Avenue Q
Gotta give them credit for trying something a little bit on the wacky side. Their January 18th episode will be an entirely musical episode, with a healthy dose of Avenue Q inspiration working behind it.
Former Avenue Q star Stephanie D’Abruzzo will appear in the episode in a role written especially for her.
The episode will features songs by Avenue Q composer/lyricists Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx. The episode is called “My Musical” and is tentatively scheduled to air on NBC Jan. 18, 2007, at 9 PM ET. “The general plot,” supervising producer Debra Fordham told Playbill.com, “is that a woman comes into Sacred Heart, our hospital, complaining that she constantly hears music, yet all her tests come back normal. Is she just crazy? Or is something else going on?” Fordham specifically wrote the part for D’Abruzzo after seeing her in another off-Broadway show this past spring.
