What is your favorite musical?
I have a whole Spotify playlist of Broadway tunes lol
Sweeny Todd
Book of Mormon
Wicked
Les Mis
Music Man
I have like 5 Pandora stations just dedicated to musicals
Not big on musicals, so I'm going with... the musical episode of Scrubs. ?
Oh, man, that episode cracks me up every time, especially Dr Cox's patter song.
Streets a Rock opera
Savatage. Great band. Except for Fight For The Rock. That record sucked.

Jesus Christ Superstar..............don't have to be a Catholic or Christian or member of any religion to believe that his teaching and outlook on life and people are worthy goals to have as a person.
I love something rotten
@LadyAlyxandrea This and Mel Brooks on writing History of the World best sum up musicals.
I've just started the set build for Shrek, and even as a carpenter I get excited.
I was inoculated against musicals as a child, I'm afraid.
Me too, can't do musicals.
No wait my favorite is into the woods
Mine too!
Fiddler on the Roof is way high up on my list. Along with others already mentioned.
Westside Story, first musical I ever saw and still my all time favorite.
I'm surprised no one has said "Doctor Horrible's Sing a long blog"
Wish they would do a stage version. And Neil Patrick Harris keeps talking about a sequel, but it never seems to happen.
Chicago is one of my all time favorite movies, musical or otherwise!
I love that story, those characters, and of course all that jazz.
My Fair Lady. I saw it at the Pantages Theatre in Los Angeles years ago. Rex Harrison was always one of my favorite actors and I got to see him in action. I'll never forget it.
Years ago I took my mom to see Rex Harrison as Henry Higgins at the Gershwin Theater on Broadway. It was a great experience.
But it wasn't until I later saw the 1938 film "Pygmalion" starring Leslie Howard and Wendy Hiller that I realized that the primary strength of "My Fair Lady" is the play, which I have come to consider the best of the 20th century. Bernard Shaw won the Oscar for best screenplay, making him the only person to win both an Academy Award and the Nobel Prize for Literature.
