What musical should Disney do?

something like On the Record, but with a complex storyline, like enchanted, but not. it should tribute Disney like Xanadu tributes the 80s. However, it should still deliver ALOT when it comes to the visual show. Also, I would love to see Disney perhaps weave the story like wicked, where we are seeing the backstory of characters & such. Either that or a musical about Walt Disney's life ala Jersey boys.

The best musical that should come to Broadway that is a Disney movie is Hocus Pocus. That is the best movie ever. I love this movie and It should be on broadway!!!

I love Pete's Dragon. Helen Reddy. Candle on the Water. I would so love to see a stage version of this.

I know it is not DISNEY but I still think that ANASTACIA should be turned into a stage musical.
ONE UPON A DECEMBER... and the whole stage is spinning as they waltz. It would be amazing!

oo! Newsies would be good too!!!!

Even though it would need a major overhaul, they should do Bedknobs and Broomsticks. Who wouldn't like a musical about an apprentice witch and a flying bed?

OMG! Hocus Pocus would be amazing on broadway! I love the Sanderson Sisters.

I 100% would love Hunchback to open on Broadway. I hope Disney confirms it soon! I also think Aladdin is a great idea for Broadway.

As well I would like on stage;

Hercules
Mulan
Pocahontas
Bedknobs & Broomsticks would make a great show.

"OMG! Hocus Pocus would be amazing on broadway! I love the Sanderson Sisters."

I like that idea too!!!

Yeah, it would be awesome if Bette Midler could reprise her role as Winifred as well!

Yeah, I would absolutely love to Hercules on stage. I absolutely love the Muses' songs. Also, I agree that Anastasia could be really cool.

And the Aladdin show at California Adventures is actually really good, I think. That could be pretty awesome on Broadway.

I would love to see Nightmare Before Christmas as a limited engagement holiday run like The Grinch.

I had an ideal cast and crew for that one. With Matthew Bourne at the helm, I don't see any possible way that it would ever fail.

I don't think it's been mentioned in this thread, but David Henry Hwang originally got involved in the Aida rewrite because he was proposing to do a Mulan musical with them. They passed on Mulan at the time, adding "but are you interested in something else?"

If they ever did Mulan, I'm sure Hwang's first on the list.

Babes In Toyland.

I've said for a long time that Nightmare Before Christmas is the only movie period that I would want to see done on stage. Imagine that big hill uncurling during Jack's song. It would be amazing.

Hercules would be fun...

I think Enchanted would be very hard to do as a full musical. True, the songs in the movie are wonderfull but it's a very important part of the movie that she stops singing.

I'd love to see The Hunchback. A few years ago I saw a production done in a church which was amazing. I'd love to see it as a full production.

Hercules could be fantastic too.

If they do a Bedknobs and Broomsticks musical, they have to use the songs cut from the movie (and later reinstated). The material in the cut songs and scenes adds some more emotion to the story. Also, who would play Miss Price? I think Victoria Clark might be good. Imagine her singing "The Age of Not Believing."
