Question!

[allfireburns]

Okay, so. kawaiispinel and chicafrom3 reminded me of an idea I had ages ago for an obscure musical ficathon, and chicafrom3 wanted someone to run one, so... I figure in the next couple months I will set up a ficathon for just that purpose.

Here's the question - when do I run it? Too late for October, obviously, November is right out of the question (NaNo and all), in December it'll be competing with a lot of other ficathons... So. Poll.

(Note that I am planning to run a Chess... not ficathon, but challenge-type-thing in December on allsixtyfour, and take that into account. Or maybe I'll do Secret Santa in December, and the challenge in January or February... Anyway.)

By obscure musical, you mean it doesn't have to belong to just one Fandom? It could be any?
And how obscure is obscure? What if the show made it to B'way but closed too quickly? What if it's a long standing off-Broadway show? What about very different workshop versions of now-popular shows?

Mostly what I mean is that it doesn't get a lot of fanfic. At the moment, I'm only excluding Rent, Wicked, and Spring Awakening. I'm sure something else ridiculously obvious will occur to me, but... it's more that the fandoms are obscure and not often written about than that the musicals themselves are (though musicals no one's heard of count too).
