            I read in the news that they are planning a Harry Potter musical. They would condense the 7 books in to one manageable show... if given the chance, are you going to watch it? Can you imagine Harry, Ron, Hermione, and even Snape since and dance?

                    seriously, it's impossible to combine all 7 books into one musical. but, we'll never know. where did you hear that news?

                    I would imagine that it would be a very stylized version of things that focuses on just a couple of plot elements. It's hard enough to take one of the books to movie form because they are so long and detailed. I can't imagine trying to condense all seven books into one reasonably cohesive and not overly long show.
Being a HP fanatic, though, if this does happen, I'm sure I"ll be interested in seeing it!

                    o my gudness. they would have to have a really talented team to be able to condense all 7 books and come up with great scores. i just can't imagine any of them singing and dancing on stage!

                    I think that the notion is utterly absurd. The first time I heard it I thought it must be the hopeful musings of some fan who just can't let go of the series now that it's completed. I have since learned otherwise. Why would anyone do something like this? No, I will not be seeing it.

                    I don't think that they could condense the entire 7 books into one musical, the movies are already too short in my opinion, they missed too much out of the fourth, so I thihnk all of them onto one is going to be too short. I'd go see it though.

                    I can't imagine how they are going to put the seven books with its several thousand pages into one show... But I love musicals and I'd still go and see it. Especially, as London is not so far from here. But you have a point about Snape singing and dancing... perhaps just singing in his case? That, at least, I could imagine.
