Films which should be musicals! (In no particular order)


1) 80's film The Princess Bride, which is amazing to be brought onto the stage with its amazing characters  & plot of romance & adventure which all the family can enjoy!


2) The Nightmare Before Christmas, a classic Tim Burton film which has its unique charm with  unforgettable characters & songs by the amazing Danny Elfman, with a comedic twist on Christmas & Halloween being combined with funny & disastrous consequences. The only changes I would do are to expand Sally's character development & her relationship with Jack & add a few songs here & there in additional scenes I can't think of at the moment!


3) Enchanted, because of its homage & spoof of Disney classics with its own modern twist which everyone can enjoy & relate to & has an amazing score & songs which are worthy for the theatre!


4) Moulin Rouge! I can just picture it in my head being a spectacle, with its touching story of love being perfect for the stage, with its captivating cover versions of classic songs & the coveted Come What May being the cherry on top! 














































5) Dracula, mainly because of the Dracula musical in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. If it were real, I'd use real actors instead of puppets & the music would be kept the same, especially the one used in the bar which I thought was hilarious!
