The English version of the musical "Gone with the Wind" recreates the grand narrative of the American Civil War through 28 songs. It not only adheres to the spirit of the original work but also deepens the theme of the fate of social classes through new plots such as the complaint of black slaves and the confession of a prostitute. The ending, "Indifferent", emphasizes the philosophy of "self-rescue", demonstrating the multi-dimensional reconstruction of literary classics on stage. A similar case is the French musical "Notre-Dame de Paris", which recreates the tragedy written by Hugo through 55 full-length golden hits and acrobatic performances. However, due to cultural differences between Britain and France, it sparked controversy during its tour in London over lyrics translation and accompaniment issues
