Have we reached the point yet where every movie has been turned into a Broadway musical?

Pretty much.

And some source material has proven to be a better choice than others.

"Kinky Boots"? Good idea.

"American Psycho"? Bad idea. (Yes, there's a musical version of "American Psycho" in New York City right now.)

But sometimes a film seems particularly ripe for the Broadway picking. Consider "Saturday Night Fever." It already had dancing — that's Tony Manero's lifeblood, after all. And it already had music, in the form of a chart-topping, Bee Gees-led soundtrack.

So no wonder it made the move from the Silver Screen to the Great White Way. After a London production, "Saturday Night Fever" opened on Broadway in 2000, with a book by Nan Knighton, in collaboration with Arlene Phillips, Paul Nicholas and Robert Stigwood. That adaptation pulled from the Bee Gees catalog beyond "Saturday Night Fever" (adding in "Nights on Broadway" and "Tragedy") and added a few entirely new numbers.

A tour of "Saturday Night Fever" stops for a performance tonight at the Garde Arts Center in New London. Prediction: An extreme outbreak of "Night Fever."

"Saturday Night Fever," 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Garde Arts Center, 325 State St., New London; $38-$65; (860) 444-7373.
