Well, isn't that just a happy little question! A sports page, a movie, and a Broadway musical all have something wonderful in common - they each tell a story in their own unique way. Whether it's through the excitement of a game, the magic of cinema, or the joy of live performance, they all have the power to inspire and bring people together. Just like painting a beautiful landscape, each of these forms of storytelling adds a splash of color to our lives.
The musical premiered on Broadway in 1958. The movie came out in 1961. That used to be the regular modus operandi, first the stage musical opened, then there was a movie version. Not that it's totally new, but it seems that almost every musical on Broadway today is based on a movie. (A current exception is Spring Awakening, which is going to be made into a movie soon.)
No. Newsies was a movie first, and has not been on Broadway.
The musical Spamalot is the stage version of the movie "Monty Python and the Holy Grail". The preview performance was in Chicago in 2004. Spamalot made its Broadway debut in 2005.
By this question, I am assuming that you mean the opening music in the 1956 musical with Yul Brynner and Deborah Kerr. As was done on the broadway stage, the movie opened with an Overture, which presented several of the musical motifs from the soundtrack.
The Broadway musical that "Footloose" is based on is also titled "Footloose." It premiered in 1998 and features a score by Tom Snow and lyrics by Dean Pitchford, who co-wrote the original 1984 film's songs. The story revolves around a city teenager who moves to a small town where dancing and rock music are banned, and he fights for the right to dance. The musical captures the same themes of rebellion, freedom, and self-expression as the movie.
