​I’m writing a musical about Arnold Schwarzenegger’s transition from Hollywood to politics.

I’m writing this drama musical that I’m hoping will have a bit more of a serious tone (think Hamilton, Hadestown, with a little bit of Ragtime) based on the inspirational tale of Arnold leaving Hollywood to discover his political ambitions

It’s currently titled “I’ll be back…. in Sacramento!”

Some of the songs:

“A dream to heavy?” I have lifted cars! I have lifted men! Can I lift a state again!?

“Don’t cry for me…Hollywood!”

“For the People”

“Flex your Heart”

“The Governinator Within”

Finale: “I’ll be back….for you!”

I came here with an accent, I leave with a promise. If democracy is heavy, we lift it together!

Do you think this sounds like good material and something I should continue to pursue?
