Up Against The Wall archiveHenry's got an idea. A great idea. An idea that's gonna make him millions. He's gonna write a musical. A black musical. A big black musical - like you've never seen before. It's gonna be afros, flares, medallions..take it to the bridge and let it all hang out. The brilliant thing about Henry's idea is that it's all so simple.. A few songs from the '70s - Shaft, Superfly, Move On Up, some funky moves, some serious vibe and hey presto - you got a hit..Henry's friend Courtney thinks they're on to a good thing. Courtney's gonna be a director - (hasn't worked much recently - bit of trouble with an actress..) Now all they need is a cast. This could be bigger than Shaft, Better than Grease. Badder than Mohammed Ali. It'll be the greatest musical ever.
