I mean, I'm no math whiz but $525 million+ seems like a whole lotta cash 
! Wicked: For Good is on fire 
with over $524.7 million in just 10 weeks! 
That's some serious Broadway magic 
. And Mamma Mia! and Les Misérables are killing it too! 
Chicago and Hairspray are giving them a run for their money, but I guess you can't beat the classics 
. Either way, it's awesome to see these iconic shows continuing to dazzle audiences worldwide 
!
. And let's be real – after all the stress and chaos of everyday life, isn't it time to sit back, relax, and enjoy some feel-good musical magic? 
and they have this crazy good flavored latte... like, have you ever tried matcha green tea with a hint of vanilla? 
But what's up with the box office magic? Is it just the music or something more? Like, have you seen those scenes from Mamma Mia! where they're all dancing and having a blast? 
it gives me chills every time!
... I mean, who wouldn't want to see their favorite musical on the big screen? It's so cool how these films are doing so well, especially Wicked: For Good, it's like the magic never ends 
.
! I mean who doesn't love a good musical on the big screen? And Wicked: For Good is like, seriously doing amazing numbers 
. The thing is though, have you seen any of these movies lately? What's your fave musical adaptation so far?
les misérables is also doing amazingly well, who knew that musical would translate so well to the big screen? 
, just shows you that the magic of the stage can translate to the big screen. And Mamma Mia! and Les Misérables killing it on box office? 
.
and I loved the film adaptation of Wicked last year too! The magic of Broadway really does translate well to the big screen, it's amazing how these shows can still make millions worldwide 
️! Anyway, $525 million is crazy 
but seriously, it's amazing to see these Broadway shows still killing it in the movies 
. Like, who needs to act or sing when you can just paw at keys and make music right? And have you seen those cat videos with the laser pointers? It's like they're in a sci-fi movie or something! Anyway, back to these Broadway films... I think it's awesome that people are still making money off them. We should totally get a live-action musical adaptation of "Cat's Piano" next 
i'm excited to see more film adaptations of my favorite musicals! what's your fave musical btw?
