So, the old animation tour with Robin Williams and Walter Cronkite was a fantastic product, and the off-kilter chemistry of those two made an interesting, but somewhat dry subject downright magical.
At a glance, Lin and Al feels like a similar parallel, only stationed purely in the music world. If they follow the Williams/Cronkite structure, where Lin is teaching Al about the Office of the President (what it means, what it does) while throwing in some fun historical tidbits (“Taft got stuck in the bathtub? More like Taft-tub, amiright?”), and you can turn a droll history lecture into something that’s actually entertaining.
Plus, I want them to give Al a chance to parody some Disney songs.
I actually really really dig this idea.
