Harry Potter to be turned into musical

Best-selling books to become stage production

Tuesday, 28 August 2007

The Harry Potter books are to be turned into a musical.

Producers hope to bring the boy wizard – played by Daniel Radcliffe in the films – to the West End next year.

‘The musical has the potential to be huge,’ a source tells the Sunday Mirror.

‘The difficulty is condensing the 7 books into a manageable show. They are exploring various ideas. One possibility is to tell the whole story. Another is to just take a single plot.

‘The plan is for spectacular flying scenes, live Quidditch and big showdowns with Voldemort.’

Now that would be magic.

Pathetic idea!! Absaloutely pathetic! I sure hope this is not true! Harry Potter is not meant to be a musical, it was never written to be a musical, the dialogues and script were meant for it to be realistic! Harry and Voldemort singing while duling? Give me a bloody break! I can't believe someone THIS stupid would come up with such a stupid idea! Retards! And what if Daniel Radcliffe can't sing? Who else will take his place? Horrible idea! STOP RUINING HARRY POTTER!!
