Hello everyone!

Forgive me if this has been done, I am totally new here! It seems the latest trend is taking successful movies and adapting them into musicals. Some fans love it, some just roll their eyes. I personally think anything could be made into a musical, if done correctly.

Anyways, what movie/book/television show...whatever...would you like be seen turn into a big stage production?

My personal thoughts are "Labyrinth", "The Devil Wears Prada" or "Velvet Goldmine" - wonderful movie if you haven't seen it!


All You Need is Love...

I don't think tv shows (overall) work as they are episodic with not real begining or end.

This isn't really new -- musicals have very often been adapted from other sources. I think the part that is new is takin relatively recent blockbusters and simply tryin to cash in.

(FYI -- this has been discussed often. There is a search feature on the home page of the discussion boards.)
