Ashley's right. Pleasantville would be a great one to adapt.

Yeah, I've always wanted to see it onstage. It's a make-up, costume and set designers dream/nightmare, though.

Hey, they did the whole black and white/color thing with City of Angels. With modern theatre tech, I'm sure it could be done. That show would be beyond amazing if they could!

Yeah, it's not the fact that it's B&W/color, but that they have to transform from B&W to color ON STAGE.

And in City of Angels, hair and make-up was all in color, while Pleasantville would require EVERYTHING (including make-up, hair, and tongues) to be grayscale. It's totally possible to do that, but it's just a nightmare changing from grayscale to color in front of an audience.

But imagine how cool the tree exploding on stage would be. Hot.

Thanks BwayBaby18, I had a feeling someone would have tried to turn it into a musical.

It would be great to see Pleasantville. To go from color to blakc and white and back to color would be crazy.

the hours is an amazing movie, one of my favorites, but i don't know if i could see it as a musical, a play definitely. i second american dreamz, that'd be amazing.
