CHAPTER 9 CHECKLIST

Get more out of what you’ve learned in this chapter by:

Watching a film musical. The 2008 movie adaptation of Mamma Mia! and its 2018 sequel Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again are two fun suggestions to start with. When watching a musical adapted to film, it’s very helpful to have seen a stage version of the play as well, either live or on YouTube. This way, you can compare and contrast. For instance, you can easily see the difference regarding the way a musical is expanded out on film—most obviously, in terms of real-world setting and location. It’s very interesting to note how the feeling of a musical changes when it’s freed from the confines of a limited world onstage (and, in the case of the Mamma Mia! films, transplanted to a sunny Greek island). Does this enhance or take away from the source material? Write your own review and express your impressions.
