Stream Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 For me it would have to be Starlight Express closely followed by Hairspray, the sight of Michael Ball in drag is one of a kind. --Stream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inyri Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Wicked, hands down. Although I did like Beauty and the Beast. Frankly I'm really more of an opera person, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChAiNz.2da Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 probably Jesus Christ Superstar, however I'm a fan of musicals (oddly enough) Grease!, Little Shop of Horrors and of course Les Miserables are high on the list. Cats? ..meh, I don't 'get it' why it's so popular.. a snoozer for me. (And though it's not "quite" a true musical per se, the Rocky Horror Picture Show is a personal fav.)

Marius Fett Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 As ChAiNz said, Le Mis and Little Shop of horrors are great. (Agree about Cats being crap too) Another one I like, is Oklahoma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astor Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Never seen We Will Rock You, Marius? It's an awesome tribute. How come no-one's mentioned The Producers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Obi-Wan Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 I've only seen a few, and Sweeney Todd (the movie) is the only one I've seen recently. I enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, never really fancied it. I'm going too see Queen tommorrow night though. Time to see for myself how good/bad Paul Rodgers really is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astor Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Nope, never really fancied it. I'd recommend it to anyone - not just Queen fans. I'm going too see Queen tommorrow night though. Time to see for myself how good/bad Paul Rodgers really is. Apparently, it's good, but it's just not the same without Freddie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep thinking about seeing it, but i'll wait till it's on DVD - that way i'm not the only male, and not the only person under 40 in the cinema.

ChAiNz.2da Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Aren't we all? Right Answer! hehehe.. you make a good point.. I keep thinking about seeing it, but i'll wait till it's on DVD - that way i'm not the only male, and not the only person under 40 in the cinema. hmmm.. yet another good point. I'm beginning to see a pattern here... Not that i'm saying anything about your age, Chainz... good show. 2 fine points AND a 'drive by' pot-shot at my geezer-ness Not yet, we were going to take the staff at work to see the movie version but never got around but no we're thinking of taking them to London to see the proper musical when we finish for Christmas. wow. That sounds awesome. Can I come? (I keed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astor Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 good show. 2 fine points AND a 'drive by' pot-shot at my geezer-ness Awesome! Level 7! Some more that should be mentioned at least, if only for their impact on many of our childhoods: Mary Poppins (No, Dick, not the Accent!) Chitty Chitty Bang Bang - it flies, it floats, it beats up Germans! Sound of Music - who doesn't love it? And of course, Sweet Charity, which also contains this song: The Rhythm of Life - it's not just the Guinness ad song, to those Brits out there! And of course, Fiddler on the Roof - Topol's film portrayal of Tevye is just amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
