LONDON, May 21 (UPI) -- David Bowie's record label says a Danish choreographer has not been granted permission to use some of Bowie's songs in a new dance show.

SAVE MONEY ON TRAVEL DEALS

The Sun newspaper in London had reported Bowie was working with Peter Schaufuss on a

a stage version of Bowie's film "The Man Who Fell to Earth, but RZO Music told the BBC "absolutely no material" had been licensed for this purpose.

Bowie last week dismissed reports he had approved a musical based on the 1976 sci-fi film as "absolute toss."

"I have no idea who Peter Schaufuss is either", the British rock icon said in a posting on his Web site.

However, Schaufuss told the BBC, "We have done everything by the book."

The choreographer -- who staged "Satisfaction", a dance piece based on the music of the Rolling Stones, in London's West End last year -- said the Bowie show is slated to premiere in Denmark in September. There are no plans to take the show out of the country, he said.

The show will feature some of Bowie's biggest hits like "Let's Dance", "Space Oddity", "Life on Mars" and "Starman", Schaufuss said.
