Yes thanks bikeidaho, there is a great musical, which is taken from the books. Thanks for reminding me!

Lots of parts left out of the play write but over all still incredibly amazing. The music captures the emotions so well.

The movies... Eh, just didn't do the story justice.

Yes, there were large chunks of the books cut out. But they often do that with movie releases I find. Still a great effort though. I think we would all agree.

Yeah, but the book >>>> the play. I see the play as an original work, loosely based on the novel.
