I think we will be seeing more musicals the next few years Budd Dec 26, 08:09

you will. Here is a sample list of up-and-comers, which incl Les Mis, many more since announced. tatoufan Dec 26, 08:17

you are selecting only the ones that do well. Its like any genre, some work, some don't. Les Mis is the most succesful musical of the last Moviesnob Dec 26, 09:21

Yep, Book of Mormon and Wicked. Not much else with potential is left. {nm} Antibody Dec 26, 09:45

I would add JBOYS: It's been a hit on Bway and touring for a long time; if marketed as well as LESMS & Dreamgirls it would do well MAlbi Dec 26, 13:43

forgot to mention RENT, Rock of Ages {nm} gogreenytd Dec 26, 09:52

The Phantom Of The Opera; The Producers... {nm} RazorHawk Dec 26, 09:58

CATS directed by Andy Serkis! {nm} Antibody Dec 26, 09:51

WB could consider 'Batman Live' for their next caped crusader movie (superhero + musical) {nm} RazorHawk Dec 26, 10:04
