Eight-time Grammy winner Gloria Estefan is writing the music and lyrics for an original stage musical called Five Notes about Paraguay’s Recycled Orchestra of Cateura, the singer announced today.

In an Instagram post, Estefan said she’s collaborating with her daughter Emily Estefan for the music, with the book written by playwright Karen Zacarías. Dear Evan Hansen director Michael Greif will direct Five Notes, according to Estefan.

Five Notes is inspired by the Orquesta De Reciclados De Cateura, also known as The Recycled Orchestra of Cateura or simply the Recycled Orchestra, an orchestra composed of children from Asunción, Paraguay, who played musical instruments made from scrap materials collected from a local landfill. Formed in 2012, the orchestra performed internationally with Stevie Wonder and the American heavy-metal bands Metallica and Megadeth, and was the subject of the 2015 documentary Landfill Harmonic.

Estefan writes that the new musical – which she says is in...

If you see one movie this year, make it “Dicks: The Musical,” if only because you genuinely won’t see anything else like it. What other movie can give you a “Parent Trap”-esque story of twins trying to get their parents back together that involves God in hot pants, twin-cest and Nathan Lane singing to a pair of “sewer boys”? And amongst all that weirdness, lies a story of love and tolerance that also pokes fun at conservatives which should be expected considering director Larry Charles helmed the equally audacious “Borat.”

The two eponymous dicks of the film are Craig and Trevor (Josh Sharp and Aaron Jackson), a pair of overly confident alpha males who sell robotic vacuum parts when they aren’t having sex with a new woman every night. They come to the realization that they are identical twins separated at birth and become determined to get...

Megan Thee Stallion has her sights set on world domination — and her takeover includes getting rid of all the men. On the soundtrack to A24’s first-ever musical Dicks: The Musical, in theaters today, the rapper blazes through her masterplan with “Out Alpha the Alpha” with unrelenting dominance.

“I’ma tell you the secret to my success,” she starts, and the answers flow from there: “Men are all stupid, weak little boys. They’re not very smart, they just make lots of noise. They got their nose up my ass,...

With A24's Dicks: The Musical, co-writers and co-stars Aaron Jackson and Josh Sharp have done the unthinkable: they've brought the now-bygone era of unabashedly crass, lowbrow humor back to the big screen – although it's arguable that many films masquerading as "serious-minded" have been filling the same void of idiocy for a while now.

Dicks is precisely the type of movie that one could expect back when the Farrelly brothers still dealt in particularly refined garbage (pronounced gar-bahj). Sharp's character, Craig Tiddle, even sports a deflated pompom cut that lies somewhere between Lloyd Christmas and Moe Howard. But just as much as one branch of the double helix is Dumb and Dumber and the crass comedy vernacular of creative cussing disguised as a script, the other branch is devoted to an evident love of musicals – namely, the ability to break into song to say what mere words sans accompaniment cannot.

Dicks: The Musical is veritable proof that there's really no other studio making movies like A24. It's one thing to adapt a stage musical for the screen, and another altogether to do so with a story that not only plays by its own rules and purposefully challenges its audiences, but also, without apology, doesn't care what you might think about it at the end of the day. In this regard, the "A" in A24 really should stand for "audacity" because, as the studio's first-ever musical movie, Dicks is as daring and wickedly funny as it is horny and heartfelt.

Directed by Larry Charles, Dicks: The Musical is an adaptation of Josh Sharp and Aaron Jackson's 30-minute Off-Broadway musical, F***ing Identical Twins. In addition to writing the screenplay, Sharp and Jackson star as Craig and Trevor, respectively, the two top-earning salesmen of a robot vacuum parts company run by Megan Thee Stallion's Gloria.

All you need to know about Dicks: The Musical is telegraphed by its title. The Larry Charles-directed movie musical is all too proud to shout (sing!) from the rooftops that it’s a cheekily immature proposition,...
