Rawls! The Musical!

The O'Reilly Theater at Keble College, Oxford recently played host to a new show: John Rawls's A Theory of Justice: The Musical!  It was billed as "an all-singing, all-dancing romp through 2,500 years of political philosophy."

Here's a trailer from the show:

Here's the official description from Vimeo:

In order to draw inspiration for his magnum opus, John Rawls travels
back through time to converse (in song) with a colourful cast of
political philosophers, including Plato, Locke, Rousseau and Mill. But
the journey is not as smooth as he hoped: for as he pursues his love
interest, the beautiful student Fairness, through history, he must
escape the evil designs of his libertarian arch-nemesis, Robert Nozick,
and the objectivist seductress, Ayn Rand. Will Rawls achieve his goal of
defining Justice as Fairness?

The world’s first feature-length musical about political philosophy
showcases a script steeped in drama, humour and romance – with a musical
score that covers everything from rap battles to power ballads.

Based on the ground-breaking philosophical book "A Theory of Justice"
(1971), this exciting new musical was met with critical acclaim when it
opened in Oxford in 2013. Philosopher Nigel Warburton called it
"brilliant: hilarious witty and profound… I cried with laughter for
most of two hours!"

A crisp student review of the show is here in Philosophy Now.  There are apparently plans to bring the show to the U.S., but those who don't want to wait can download the full production for $9.99 here.
