	Australian-American pair Vicki Larnach and Jim Hare secured local rights to develop a musical adaptation of {{GO}} in 2013. The music and lyrics were written by Larnach, with a book by Hare & Jay James-Moody. While it remains unproduced, it was staged ~~i SYdney~~ by production company Squabbalogic as a “workshop” production - without full sets and costumes - in a few one-off performances between 2017 and 2019. Unfortunately the musical has been unable to secure full funding; the producers have explained in appearances at fan events that this is because the international rights were unavailable (in part because of [[TV and Film:Good Omens\|the then-upcoming Amazon Prime series]], announced part-way through the musical’s development), and large Australian productions generally rely on touring or licensing income from outside of Australia . It has not progressed further since. [https://www.goodomensthemusical.com The production’s website is still live] and includes a “[https://www.goodomensthemusical.com/sizzle-reel sizzle reel]” of highlights from those performances, and video of the production was shown to Neil Gaiman and Rob Wilkins in 2019. Its future is undetermined, but it seems unlikely to proceed any time soon.
