Broadway adaptation

A Broadway adaptation is the process of transforming a pre-existing work—such as a book, movie, or play—into a musical or theatrical production for the stage. This involves reimagining the original story to fit the live performance format, often incorporating music, dance, and dialogue. The goal is to create an engaging experience that resonates with audiences, sometimes altering or expanding characters and plots to enhance emotional depth or entertainment value. Successful adaptations can draw both theater enthusiasts and fans of the original work, making them a popular choice for Broadway shows.
