Manics musical?

Quite a while ago, I read someone's script for a Manics musical about Nicky and Richey falling in love, but Richey was a terrorist and Nicky a politician, and there was time travel and Richey trying to blow up the NHS. I really want to read his again, but I can't find it anywhere. Please help!

EDIT:
The musical is Terminal Young Thing's Star Cross-dressed Lovers. Please read it, as it is very good.

Now, THAT, is a concept album they should record.

I thought this was going to be your plot idea for a manics version of We Will Rock You or Mamma Mia, aka a random story with manics songs telling it.

This is so much weirder and amazing.
