Topic: What's your favourite musical?

[Wolstenholme]

(I didn't put this on any of the child boards because most Musicals fit into all three categories!)

However: quite simply What is your favourite Musical?

Mine is between Sweeney Todd, Phantom of the Opera and Les Miserables!

im not a really big fan of musicals, but i do love Chicago, its one of the few that ive been to see in the ~theatarr~. and i own the soundtrack from the film aw yee. 
i meant to go see it again when it came to sheffield, but ended up not being in town around that time booo. 
 
never seen either of the three you posted in the first post haha, guess that shows how little interest i have in them really. 
 
grease is pretty gr8 yeah obviously, ive been to see that performed too.

I went to see Chicago when it was in Sheffield! - It was amazing :-)

[Sebastian Moran]

booo, i was going to trick beth into going to see it with me as well. 
im not entirely sure how but it would have involved an elaborate pulley system and a cardboard mask of nick clegg. 
 
why which i mean hurray. 
and i take back everything i said, my favourite musical is OBVIOUSLY the opera ibiza uncovered. 
probably gonna slap a vague warning for language on it for this forum, because its pretty intense and gripping stuff.

[Sebastian Moran]

last summer i think, but i ended up having to go home, i think it was shortly after i convinced you to watch the film of it. 
 
also everything that i know about opera i have learned from comedy shows.

If Disney cartoon movies count, then the Aladdin series is one of my favorites, though it's been a while since I've seen any of them from beginning to end.

Other than that... Besides the movie adaptation, I think I saw a DVD of a live performance of the Pirates of Penzance once. I remember liking the movie, at least, but I have since forgotten a lot about the story itself. The thought occurs that I haven't really seen that many on-stage musicals in person, after all...

Sheesh, typing all that made me remember West Side Story exists, for some reason. Which is weird because I recall seeing a lot of it as a kid.
