Lyd's Archive (7/'15 to 6/'18) Okay, so I don't think I'm quite ready to read War and Peace itself, but has anyone on Goodreads heard of a musical which was based on seventy pages of the second volume with the name mentioned above? I haven't found anyone who's listened to it yet, though I did attempt to make 'converts' among the Hamilton fandom since Phillipa Soo played Natasha in the initial run.

Anyone here heard of Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet of 1812 by Dave Malloy?


Angelica YES!!! OH my god I was hoping someone on Goodreads would mention this musical. I'm obsessed with "The Great Comet" and will be seeing it in NYC soon.
I've been working through War and Peace for about two weeks now and I've gotten past the part covered in "The Great Comet." Honestly, I thinking the book has made me appreciate the musical more, and I think the musical has also simultaneously made me appreciate the book more. The two go hand-in-hand. Leo Tolstoy and Dave Malloy are both geniuses.
