Hello everyone! My name is GreatBroadwayFan and I run a YouTube channel (of the same name) dedicated to talking about/loving/obsessing over Broadway and musical theatre. I am planning to do a couple of episode regarding MOVIE MUSICALS and I want your opinions!

What Broadway, Off-Broadway, West End or preexisting stage musical would you like to see get adapted into a movie for the first time?

Kiss of the Spider Woman.

I want the Follies film to happen - but without Meryl Streep please. Nothing against her, just would like to see others get a chance at that role (assuming Streep is still favored to play Phyllis Stone)

Spring awakening or dear Evan hansen. I think teens would eat that stuff up and so would I.

I think the stage adaption of mary poppins would make a great movie, but it would never happen with the new emily blunt version.

IF/Then could be cool. 

 

Book of Mormon would also be interesting.

Aside from the ones that are already in the works (Beautiful, Matilda, Miss Saigon, Spring Awakening, Wicked, etc.), the ones I'd most like to see are...

The Light in the Piazza
Next to Normal
Ragtime

^Same here, but I'd also like The Visit. I never saw the show, but I have listened to the cast recording, read the script, and seen set pictures. I think it could work with the right people...

I'd love to see Aida, but that'd never happen due to it being owned by Disney and being extra dark.

I would love to see Young Frankenstein & Xanadu musicals get made into a movie! Two great shows in my opinion.
