CHICAGO, Jan. 1 (UPI) -- Chicago's Second City Theatricals comedy troupe says it is working on a satirical production called "Rush Limbaugh: The Musical!"

The Chicago Tribune reported the show is by the acting team that staged the recent hit musical "Rod Blagojevich Superstar!" "Limbaugh" is expected to open next month at the Second City e.t.c. theater.

Among the characters to be lampooned in the show are the titular political commentator, along with fellow conservatives Ann Coulter, Karl Rove and Donald Rumsfeld, the Tribune said.

Limbaugh made headlines this week when he was hospitalized with chest pains while on vacation in Hawaii.

Dr. Walter E. Williams, Thursday's guest host for "The Rush Limbaugh Show," said Limbaugh remained hospitalized "in good and stable condition."
