Hey everyone! I know that there was a thread somewhere about the possibility of a Chocolat musical, so I was wondering.... What are some other movies that you think would make really good shows? It can be play or musical.......
PS- I didn't know if there was already a thread on this, so if there is you can post the link if you want.... :)
Here's my first list:
Fried Green Tomatoes (musical)
Norma Rae (drama)
Finding Neverland (musical)
i'll have to think of more.......

Posted: 2/11/05 at 7:36pmI suggested selena a few months ago, but apparently the idea had already come up, and a hurrendous attempt resulted.

Posted: 2/11/05 at 8:42pmHow about Big Fish as a dramatic musical. I love this movie so much, and I think it holds that larger than life quality that seems to translate well into musical theatre.

Posted: 2/11/05 at 8:57pmClueless would be a cute, funny musical and I'd love to see Finding Neverland (they should cast Johnny Depp again!) as a musical. As for Moulin Rouge, I would really love to see that made into a stage musical. I love the storyline and songs.

My Cousin Vinny would be interesting....

Posted: 2/11/05 at 9:06pmWell he had a band going for quite some time which he sang for. I dont know if that means much since I havent heard him but I'd assume it means he at least knows how to sing and has entertained the idea of doing it.
