Is this true? ALL my friends are flippin in love with the movie. I read that it's going to be made into a B'way musical. Just wonderin' what ppl thought about the movie. I have refused to see it (just to spite my friends) but if it's going to be a forreal musical then it must have some worth right?
I dont know if you know this or not, but there are lots of threads similar to this. There is a search feature you can use to retrieve them. It doesn't seem as if you have posted a lot, so I will just let you know.
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle
I think it's ridiculous that it's even being turned into a "real" musical, but if there was ever a professional production of this, I want to see Allison Fischer and Barrett Foa as Sharpay and Ryan..
