Call it "Harry Potter and the Chamber Musical"
"A Very Potter Musical," a fan-written and produced homage/parody musical about the "boy who lived," is quickly rising the ranks of most watched clips on YouTube.com
We'll admit it. It's no "Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog," but we're enchanted.
The opening guitar strains are reminiscent of "Jesus Christ Superstar." The musical is also equal parts "Spring Awakening" and "Wicked," but is mostly from the Potter canon. In fact, just about all the books are jumbled into one parody.
Act One, Part 1
Act One, Part 2
Watch more after the jump ...
Act One, Part 3
We especially loved the duet between Quirrell and Voldemort -- because it answers the lingering question of just how Quirrell managed to sleep at night when the dark lord was riding on his back ...
Act One, Part 5
Another favorite part: Ginny Weasley gets the obligatory torchsong after Harry toys with her emotions ...
And who knew the dark lord was so light on his feet?
