Courtney Love will stage a Kurt Cobain-themed musical if she can get the right people on board.
"After being swarmed by tons of Nirvana fan mail and social media posts pushing for a musical to become a reality," the 49-year-old told NME. "Both Frances [Bean Cobain] and I have thought long and hard and agreed that if we can reach up to the highest shelf and select a team of the greatest and most respected writers, producers and directors, then a Broadway musical is very likely to happen.
"There would have to be a story, and a great story, one that hasn't been told before. I would devote countless hours with an A-team to create a project that reflects Kurt in the most respectful but honest way possible, so that his story, his music and his legacy can be resurrected on stage for not only the world to see, but more importantly for our daughter to see.
"I know her father's spirit will be on that stage and sitting in that theatre with her will be the most emotional experience of our lives."
Photos of the singer's death scene have also arisen recently, as well as reports of a fundraiser to turn his childhood home into a museum for Nirvana fans.
TheFIX will let you know if any of these projects see the light of day.
In the meantime, in line with the 20th anniversary of Kurt's death on April 8, let's just let the frontman rest in peace.
