What are the ones you have seen, or your favorites?

Mine are:


- Wicked (Well, I've only heard the soundtrack, and I already like it. I'm reading the book though.)
- Rent
- Chicago
- Jesus Christ Superstar
- Moulin Rouge (I frickin' HATE the story, but I love the music. The only good parts of the movie.)
- Little Shop of Horrors
- Les Miserables (Seen it, but I don't love it.)
- Evita
- Aida

One of my music teachers once did the music for Joseph in London.

There's a group called the Rattonians in my area, who do alot of those every year. This year they're doing west side story.

I have several friends in the group, but I really can't bring myself.

Pretty much, I'm madly in love with musicals. All of the ones I list, I've seen live or via movie...

Rent -- AMAZING. I cried so hard the first time I watched it, and I still cry...

Greece -- A feel good movie, even if the end is a little trippy... Who ends a movie with a flying car?

Les Miserables -- I saw this one live, and it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. It teaches a wonderful lesson and inspired me to read the book by Victor Hugo... I do not reccommend the book... Hugo rambles... Endlessly...

The Sound of Music -- Yeah, I like it, SO WHAT?! It was the first musical I ever saw, and I watched it when I was about four with my mother. I loved it.

The Phantom of the Opera -- Pretty much the shiz. *laughs* This is one of the saddest films of all time, and the music is to DIE for. It also has a nice love drama, which I enjoy.

Chicago -- Okay, so I'm a sucker for murderesses... Hehe, this one is also amazing. The music is superb, and "Cell Block Tango" ranks as one of my top five Broadway song favs.

A Chorus Line -- A little odd, but hillarious. Some of those songs... Oh boy...

West Side Story -- Yes, the '80s version. It's amazing, and I dont' care if the styles and dancing is corny. The storyline is still wonderful.

Cats -- I love this one, too. Andrew Lloyd Webber is AMAZING. He's a feaking genius, and I don't care who thinks this musical is weird. I love it.

Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat -- Mom and I watched this one about two years ago. It was good, and I was madly in love with the biblical theme.

Oklahoma -- Saw this live on a girl scout trip. It was the first musical I saw live. It was so freaking awesome. A little odd, but awesome. The older musicals are all a little odd and a little corny, but I love them.

Annie -- Yeah, EVERYONE's seen this one. But again, I like it.

*ponders* I think that may be it... I'll add more if I think of more...

Who's that returning from the depths of forum ghosts past? Oh! It's me!
