More Wuthering Heights adaptations in progress. We have novels, operas, ballets, TV series, films, new theatre versions, musical theatre adaptations (Fabio Zuffanti's or Marsha Norman and Lucy Simon's Heathcliff)... and one more musical seems to be making its way. The clues come from Mark Ryan's MySpace blog:

'll also be a guest at the San Diego ComicCon to discuss my new graphic novel "The Pilgrim" with Mike Grell during a panel on Friday, the 25th. I'm really looking forward to the event and I'll be there until Monday morning. If you see me, please come up and say: "Hello!"
I'll also be talking about Wuthering Heights, a new dramatic musical adaptation we've been recording that will be launched online in August. It's got some very cool people involved and it's been really great hearing Emily Bronte's Yorkshire masterpiece of dark passion and romantic obsession come to life in the studio. We may even play a sneak preview...

While in London we also did some more recording work on the musical project: Wuthering Heights, laying down and editing the Lockwood narration sections. (Who will performs Lockwood will be revealed during the summer) While in the studio we bumped into Paul Knight (RoS Producer) the man largely responsible for my addition to the cast as Nasir. It was great seeing Paul who was in fine form and full of good humor and showbiz banter, as usual!
So! The intention with Wuthering Heights is to release four tracks online during July and follow up with the entire concert version later in 09. I'm really enjoying working on Wuthering Heights and being back in the studio and musical environment once again! We'll be casting for our Catherine, Isabella and Ellen Dean during May/June.
Well, they seem to be a little behind schedule. Today, July 25, at the San Diego Comic-Con 2008 there might be some answers:
