From Insanity to Music

Pedro Almodovar's film Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown definitely has a bizarre streak running through it. And for David Yazbek, the composer of the musical that film inspired, that seems to have done just the trick. Yazbek received his third Tony nomination for the show's score (after previous nominations for his scores to 2001's The Full Monty and 2005's Dirty Rotten Scoundrels) and recently spoke with Playbill.com about his experiences with the film and his process for writing the show. Enjoy!
