Adaptations (Film and Stage)

Adaptations, whether for film or stage, are creative versions of existing stories, books, or plays transformed into a different format. They involve translating the original material into a new medium while maintaining the core narrative, themes, and characters. This process often requires altering dialogue, scenes, or structure to suit the medium’s strengths—such as visual effects for film or live performance for theater. Adaptations allow audiences to experience familiar stories in fresh ways, making the original work accessible and engaging through different artistic choices and technological capabilities.
