The Groupon Guide to: Modern Musicals

Thanks to recent revivals and show-stopping adaptations, Broadway musicals are back and bigger than ever. What are some tips you'll need to know in order to mount a spectacular show?

Great Artists Steal: Though early Broadway musicals were usually original works, Shakespeare plays with songs added, or adapted from stories overheard on the West Side, modern musicals all borrow their plots from hit Hollywood films such as The Producers, So I Married an Axe Murderer, and So I Married an Axe Murderer … Again?!

Star Power: Like the plots and titles, the surefire way to put Broadway bottoms into seats is with good old-fashioned Hollywood star power. A charisma volcano such as Mousehunt's Nathan Lane is sure to pack the house, but for Broadway on a budget, try inspirational up-and-comer Huck Bennefree, the current world-record holder for most consecutive nights literally singing his lungs out.

Try Writing Some Songs About Love: People seem to like those.

Showtime: The most important part of opening a Broadway musical is reading the reviews. Go across the street from the theatre to a fancy restaurant with a neon sign of a smoking catfish and wait for the waiter to bring you a silver platter—it will contain the evening edition of The Broadway Times. If you do not like what you read, it is considered socially acceptable to break the waiter's leg—hence the old acting expression "I hate you, waiter!" You are now a Broadway success.

Is your favourite movie the next to be turned into a Broadway musical? (Hint: yes!)
