Ferris Bueller musical?

Could a musical adaptation of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off work? It’s one of my favorite films and I’d love to see someone give it a shot.

There will never be a way to make a musical of this movie that is better than or even on par with the film.

As such, why bother?

Broadway World's Fireman.

My first thought is, "it has so many locations, it's going to have horrible video screens like MEAN GIRLS!"

But I agree with Sondheimite. MEAN GIRLS may be an apt comparison: an overly faithful libretto that never quite lives up to the original movie. The movie is as much of a classic as Groundhog Day, and people weren't genuinely interested in seeing that onstage. Mean Girls has the advantage of being more recent and having a very famous/active bookwriter.
