There’s a professionally shot film of the Broadway performance on Disney+. I think the Broadway version is even better than the original film. It’s fun watching both.

I guess the story is that Disney wanted another musical hit that could be filmed and released before their next animated film after the little mermaid came out. So they got the guy that did the music for the little mermaid and tried a live action movie musical.

It kinda flopped, but became a cult classic with theater kids. Eventually Disney had someone rework a few songs and did a small theater run. It became a success and ran on broadway. It’s now a very popular title for regional theaters. Check and see if there’s a theater venue near you that is doing the musical, it’s really great live.
