From Page to Stage, Broadway Hits the Books This Fall
by Matt Tamanini - Oct 24, 2015

However, long before the stage looked to the screen as a source for new works, the inspiration for many of the theatre's best shows came from the pages of some of the world's best books; like THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK, or the longest running show in Broadway history, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA.
