Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which came first - 'Grease' the movie or 'Grease' the musical?

Answer: musical

It's in the credits to the movie, which I watched the other day.

2. Which came first - the 'Phantom of the Opera' movie or 'The Phantom of the Opera' musical?

Answer: movie

There have been five 'Phantom' movies, including a silent movie in 1925. There have been five 'Phantom' novels, including the original by Gaston Leroux, a romance called 'Phantom' by Susan Kay, 'Phantom of Manhattan' by Fredrick Forsyth, and 'Progeny.' I am unsure of the author of this novel and the name and author of the fifth novel. Fredrick Forsyth's and the last two are all sequels. And the crime of all crimes - Antonio Banderas signed a contract in 1998 to play the title role in 'Phantom of the Opera' the motion picture-musical. Sarah Brightman refuses to star as Christine Daae and I am currently unsure about Steve Barton as Raoul, Victome de Chagny.

3. Which came first - 'Les Miserables' the movie (several of them) or 'Les Miserables' the musical?

Answer: movie

There are six movies, five of which were produced before the musical. The most recent stars Liam Nieson as Jean Valjean, Uma Thurman as Fantine, Geoffrey Rush as Javert, and Claire Danes as Cosette Fauchlevent, also referred in the novel as Madamoiselle Euphrasie Fauchlevent. M. Fauchlevent is the man whom Valjean saved from under a cart and with whom Valjean and Cosette live at the end.

Her actual last name (that being Fantine's last name) is never mentioned.

4. Which came first - 'A Chorus Line' the musical or 'A Chorus Line' the movie?

Answer: musical

The movie starred Michael Douglass as Zach, the choreographer.

5. Which came first - 'Charly' the movie or 'Flowers for Algernon' the show?

Answer: Charly

A VERY little-known Michael Crawford musical. Andrew Lloyd Webber did NOT compose this, as many think he did. By the way... I was ordered not to put my personal opinions on here so if you're starting to miss the lovely, charming little me-things that come from no where but the cynical Heather Nick, that's why. I put my opinions and thoughts on here because ever since a novel of mine got deleted off a floppy disk AND the C drive, I have few places to put them.

After all, these are MY quizes. So sorry. -HN
