A musical of Harry Potter would fail.

Darren Criss has already done this to decent results.


But in all seriousness...Dave Malloy.

Frank Wildhorn, so it would never get produced in the United States.

YES!

 

Also, waiting for the day Darren Criss gets to play Harry in Cursed Child. It's bound to happen.

JK Rowling has been pretty vocal about how she was approached by multiple people for a musical. Most notably (that we know of), was Michael Jackson. She said no to so many things in attempts to keep the Potter-verse contained, but it's funny to look back at that now with the "Wizarding World" universe/empire she's built. 

It's hard for me to even imagine a Harry Potter musical, but I think someone like Florence Welch would need to do it.
