Mr. Body isn't safe anywhere these days.
Clue, the Hasboro murder-mystery board game that inspired the 1985 cult-classic film, is getting the stage treatment with a new, official play. The play from the movie's writer-director Jonathan Lynn will be ready by May 2017.
The movie, which starred Tim Curry, impressed audiences after release with physical comedy, highly quotable jokes, and a multiple-choice ending. The flick is the standard for board-game movies (sorry, Ouija).
Clue will get a movie remake as well. Until then, make sure to check out the original--and all of Ms. White's sickening reads.

        In Oh, Mary!, President Abraham Lincoln (Conrad Ricamora) has his hands full with the Civil War — as well as the antics of his wife, Mary Todd Lincoln (Cole Escola), an alcoholic who is less concerned with a divided country than with dreams of becoming a cabaret star. But Lincoln’s eyes keep wandering from the task at hand to his handsome assistant, Simon (Tony Macht). Anguished after seducing Simon, he prays to God to make his gay desires go away. Keep Reading →
