Question: Do you think Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone would fly as a Broadway Musical!?

I just asked this question, but I wanted to try it in a different category to reap different results!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It just depends on the writing and if the actors cast in the show can convey the same feeling to the audience as when they felt when read the books and watched the movies!. It's a heavy burden to carry but it can be done!. The score from the movie still brings out certain feelings and as long as Hedwig's Theme is intact they've already gotten some people's attention!. You must know that the musical is actually already in the works, right!? I guess we'll see the reactions when it comes out!.

as much as both of those are like my two farvorite things in the world

(broadway and harry potter)
i dont think they mix well
there has been rumors of a musical

and i would go see it if they did
and it possibly could be great!!!

but i seriously doubt it will be a success if they ever did
itd be to hardWww@QuestionHome@Com

If it does, I will lose all hope in the future of the Broadway Musical!.

I mean, sheesh - Legally Blonde THE MUSICAL, Cry Baby THE MUSICAL, Spamalot THE MUSICAL, Young Frankenstein THE MUSICAL!.!.!.how many more movies are going to have "THE MUSICAL" painfully attached to their titles!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

I **love** the Harry Potter books!. So far, I think they've done a fantastic job with the movie adaptions!. But I can't see it working on stage- as a musical or otherwise!. The story just doesn't lend itself to that kind of presentation!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

no i do not think so
it would be weird and i just cant see it
as a musical!. Harry Potter is too "dark"
and scary i dont know but i just dont think
you would get the same effect if harry
was singing his spells!.

It would be tricky, but I think if you could make it work, it would probably be awesome!. The songs would most likely be dark the way I picture it!. But, with some good harmonies, it could be amazing!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
