AC/DC Singer's 'Helen of Troy' Musical Subject Of Upcoming TV Special

June 21, 2004

According to Undercover News, a U.S. production has been documenting the early days of AC/DC frontman Brian Johnson's upcoming musical about "Helen of Troy" for a TV special to be called "Highway To Helen". Johnson has spent the past six years working on the musical.

Johnson's version of the "Helen of Troy" story started out as a side-project to his work with AC/DC but delays in funding have lead to delays in the project getting off the ground. CRANBERRIES singer Dolores O'Riordan is tipped to play Helen while British actor Malcolm Macdowell ("A Clockwork Orange") has been selected as a narrator. Macdowell recently made his recording debut singing one of the songs for the soundtrack in Brian's studio.
