Um...since I hate musicals with a passion (Who bursts into song in the middle of a converstation? I only tolerate musical theatrics in Disney cartoons and on the Simpsons) When I was in 5th grade we went on a field trip to see 1776. I didn't mind that too much. :-)

Well it's hard to rate them but I like among others:
"The Rocky Horror picture show"
" A nightmare before christmas"
"Oliver"
"Chess"
and "Singing in the rain" if that counts as a musical ;)

I like Evita and South Park the movie among others. I find it amazing that it is acctually possible to let people burst out in song without making it look very odd. Possibly that is one piece of what makes a good musical (apart from the story and the music of course...).


So... I just follow the yellow brick road.... that way I think. Perhaps someone will give me a brain in the end.

Follow, follow, follow, follow...

I like Moulin Rouge and Grease but that's it. Musicals are usually too syrupy for me.

Moulin Rouge; because for one, phhhtttt...it takes place in an Absinthe Bar and also because i am a big kiss fan, and they did a cover of one of their song ""I was made for Lovin' you""
