Anyone else love musicals? I'm completely hooked to Glee and all that...

Sweeney Todd is one of my favorites, but I wasn't too crazy about Tim Burton's film. It was a little too dark, whereas the play is actually pretty funny pretty much throughout. I'm also a sucker for Grease and The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

I've always wanted to see a live performance of Wicked...oh, and Repo: the Genetic Opera looks interesting too!

Do any of you guys like musicals?

Love 'em :drool: I have the soundtracks for RENT, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Wicked, Sweeney Todd, Mamma Mia, Phantom of the Opera. I have seen musicals from high school plays, but none professionally. I would LOVE to see Wicked or RENT, especially Broadway.

Ohhh, Phantom of the Opera! ;_; I've always wanted to see that one, too! I live in kind of a small place, so there's virtually no live theater here at all, and barely any musical theater. I dream of the day I'll live somewhere where I can actually go see a play...

There are some professional theaters around here. Nothing BIG like Broadway, but it's better than high school and has real actors/actresses in it. I'm picky though. I want to see Wicked, but only with Kristin Chenowith as Glinda, and Idina Menzel as Elphie. Those two are just perfect with each other.

Ah, I saw Phantom in at the Boston Opera house just after it'd been reopened. The renovations they'd done were amazing and the musical itself was phenomenal.

That aside Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is amazing, as are The Scarlet Pimpernel, 1776, Notre Dame de Paris, and so many others.

Musicals are love. ^.^

Anyone have any favorite actors or actress whose singing they absolutely adore regardless of what they're playing in?
