Re: favourite musical.

I remember seeing Rocky Horror when I was about 7 on New Years Eve one year and me and all my mates were laughing enourmously when they said "transexual" and things. We are all very strange.

Re: favourite musical.

Missed my chance to see Rocky Horror on stage a few years ago as I was ill. Had a costume ready, fishnets and all. My mates had a brilliant time at that one. The stage version of the Lion King and Chitty chitty bang bang are supposed to be good. Would love to see those.

Thumbs up Re: favourite musical.

It wasn't a stage production but I really liked the Bernstein/ Ti Kanawa/ Domingo? CD of West Side Story. A great story with a great score - funky, mixing Bernstein's love of then contemporary Jazz with more established operatic devices. The video of "the making of West Side Story" (the version I mentioned) is very interesting - a scene showing Bernstein losing his rag with Domingo because of some musical issue is compelling viewing. Seeing these masters of their art working together with such professional comaraderie (spelling?) is very inspiring! My grandmother was part of Blackburn Amateur Dramatics society so I was brought up on helping serve tea to the performers during performance of Gilbert & Sullivan Operas - Pirates of Penzance was a favourite at the time.

Re: favourite musical.

Am catching up on things I missed - so just found this one. Loved Return to the Forbidden Planet. saw Rocky Horror in Weybridge of all places, six of us in French maid's outfits with fishnet stockings and stilettos - the sight of Nicholas Parsons in fishnet stockings will stay with me for a long time!

Re: favourite musical.

Ceejache mentions West Side Story. Great film, but the best version of the music that I ever heard was by Oscar Peterson.

I was seven when I first saw Brigadoon. I must admit I have enjoyed it since and it's not bad at all. But I must agree with Staggeringman The Buddy Holly film must be up there among the top 10 or 15......
