Toni Collette in a star-making turn as Muriel (with Daniel Lapaine as David Van Arkle)(Miramax Films)

Inspired by The Oscars, this week we're looking at some of our favourite movies-turned-stage musicals. Who knows, maybe in ten years time we'll have 'Barbenheimer - The Musical!'

Naarah showcases some of the best examples of silver screen stories getting the stage treatment, including Little Shop of Horrors, cult classic Heathers, Mary Poppins and Muriel's Wedding.
