Re: You favourite musical
What kind of musical? Broadway or adapted for TV ...... Oh I'll answer both
Broadway ...... Miss Saigon with a close 2nd being West Side Story. TV musical ...... Chicago, because Richard Gere is in it

Re: You favourite musical
Chicago. I adore it.
I was lucky enough to go to the first night of this current West End production of it, with Ruthie Henshall, the divine Ute Lemper, and Nigel Planner. I saw it three more times with different casts, each time wonderfully sexy. I recommended it to my old boss, to take his wife for her birthday, and they hated it. Philistines!

Re: You favourite musical
My favourite is 'Fiddler on the Roof' .. love every song, particularly 'Sunrise, Sunset' and the all the libretto that goes with it. Like 'Phantom' too, but not the music, just for the spectical, which is what it is really .. unless you have millions of pounds to spend on staging and effects, forget it !
Ok .. 'Grease' is great too and 'Little Shop of Horrors' .. great fun. Would go and watch any professional musical now (produced in the U.K. of course, 'cause we do it best) as the talent amongst the performers is absolutely outstanding. X-Factor/Pop Star wannabee's go and watch some of these performers .. you might learn plenty. |

Re: You favourite musical
I've got a lot of favorites (performed in a lot of them, too!)
Guys and Dolls The Music Man Showboat Kiss Me Kate The Light in the Piazza Peter Pan Man of La Mancha City of Angels Also love G&S - my "niece" (actually, my best friend's daughter) just was cast as Elsie in an upcoming production of Yeoman of the Guard in New York City. With a bit of luck, she will make a career in opera.

Re: You favourite musical
Speaking of musicals, anyone have recommendations for which ones I should se in London?
Already saw The Producers, Mary Poppins, Blood Brothers, Les Miz, Avenue Q and Phantom of the Opera. Thanks much for any advice!
