A musical about Anne Frank - A bit weird maybe?

I heard on the radio to day that a musical is to be made of 'The Diary of Anne Frank'.

Personally, I am as yet undecided, but do any of the forum members think this is just a touch weird?

Seems a little odd to me too. Musicals are usually light, entertaining and without too much of a serious subject - aren't they?

The book was excellent, but maybe not a musical?!

not really.... "les miserables" is anything but light and definitely with a serious subject, or "jesus christ superstar", "evita", just to name a few...to be honest, i can imagine that anne frank could be quite interesting.

it does sound a strange story for a musical, but as cin said some of the great musicals have be about sad things.

i loved the book, so i hope the musical will be just as good.

Cabaret had quite dark overtones too.

Also the new Johnny Depp/Tim Burton collaboration of Sweeney Todd brings together great Stephen Sondheim melodies along with horrific gory killings.

Me too - on the other hand, I've never been a fan of musicals - so what do I know?
Could be brilliant if you like that sort of thing.
