Musical theatre and magical realism novels share the common trait of blurring the lines between reality and the extraordinary. In musicals, characters might break into song and dance in otherwise ordinary settings, much like how magical realism novels introduce magical elements into an otherwise real - world context. For instance, in a magical realism novel, a character might be able to communicate with animals. In musical theatre, we might see characters with supernatural abilities or events that defy normal logic, like in 'The Phantom of the Opera'. They both offer an escape from pure realism and engage the audience or reader in a world that is a blend of the familiar and the fantastical.
Some of the popular songs in the musical include 'A Major Award' and 'Ralphie to the Rescue'. The music adds a lot of charm and festive spirit to the story.
Yes. For example, the use of spectacle in musical theatre can be translated into vivid descriptions in magical realism novels. In musicals, big set pieces and elaborate choreography create a sense of wonder. In a novel, detailed descriptions of magical events or places can have the same effect. Also, the use of music and rhythm in musical theatre can be thought of as the flow of language in a magical realism novel. Just as a musical has a tempo, a novel can have a rhythm in its prose that keeps the reader engaged.
I'd recommend 'The Melody of Broadway'. It has a wonderful plot about a group of teens pursuing their musical theatre dreams, facing challenges and achieving success along the way. The characters are really engaging and the story is full of excitement.

Well, one way could be to have a narrator who tells the story while the actors play out the key moments. The music and lyrics could capture the joy and pain of the friendship and love. And maybe there could be some sort of a resolution or closure for the main character at the end.
