Musical theatre combines music, songs, spoken dialogue and dance to tell an emotional story. Popular musicals like Les Misérables, Wicked, and The Phantom of the Opera are regularly performed on Broadway. Wicked tells the story of the unlikely friendship between the Witches of the West and Glinda before Dorothy's arrival in Oz. Les Misérables follows Jean Valjean after he breaks his parole and strives to rebuild his life. Acting for film involves portraying characters on camera in a way that shows their personality for a movie production.
