GREEK TRAGEDY - What would a Jared Kushner musical entail? David Byrne explores the idea

While one could reasonably make a case that Jared Kushners life mirrors the lyrics of Once in a Lifetime a little too close for comfort at times, David Byrne is willing to save the obvious beautiful house and beautiful wife jokes and do you one better: What if he just gave Kushner his own musical instead? If I wrote from his point of view, you have to get the audience to buy into what hes feeling, and obviously he has a face of stone, Byrne, who knows a thing or two about writing musicals, explained on The Late Show. I think his thing is, I cant let what happened to my daddy happen to me. Daddy went to jail for doing some bad things.
Its like a Greek tragedy. Everything that Jared does takes him closer to what happened to daddy. He cant stop it. Really, we can taste the music and lyrics at this point: Everything I do, its a magnet pulling me into my fate! / The fates are going, youre going to relive your fathers sins! Its sold out already.
