danwilliams 0 Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Hey people, I am just wondering what your favourite musical of all time is? I cna see most people will probably say grease or something like that because its a ver famous on, but I really don't know what to choose, lion king, pahntom of the opera, grease, chitty chitty bang bang, rocky horror picture show, little shop of horros, les miserables, the sound of music, we will rock you, mamma mia, ther eare so so many to choose from its really really hard. I think the best one I have been part of has to be our school production of "the Wiz" whihc is an adaptation of the wizard of oz but in a 1970's motown style. but my overal favourite musical of all time has got to be Les Miserables.

Kelyndra 0 Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Oh, I'm a sucker for musicals... hehe. I have to be in the right mood to watch them, but when I am, I love them. Can't stand Grease though. I think my faves would be Oliver, My Fair Lady, and Rodger and Hammerstein's Cinderella. Link to comment
danwilliams 0 Posted June 25, 2006 Author Share Posted June 25, 2006 thats pretty cool. the ones you have all listed so far are ones I love, although due to school production oliver isn't one of my favourites jsut because it was completely awful and it put me off it for life. boreas, I'm doing les mis this year fot he school prduction and as well as my normal role as "technical director" doing all the sound lighting and pyrotechnics, I will be put on stage this year due to a lack of strong male voises and so far we have only had the auditions and I've already been cast as 4 of the main characters. firlty I was valjean, then enjorlas, then javert and I think now I am marius so I get to sing empty chairs and empty tables. however my favourite song from it is not empty chairs and empty tables but One day more. and I know what you mean about south pacific... it is pure cheese but there is something addictive about it! and wel jekyll and hyde I did "this is the moment" for my GCSE music performance just over 2 years ago!

Kelyndra 0 Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 I was in "My Fourth Play", an original production by a friend of ours... JonJon played the lead role, and I played opposite him. It wasn't actually a musical, but there was a musical number at the very end. Link to comment

Adrienne 0 Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 I wish I had gotten to see "My Fourth Play". I too have been in a few musicals...."Annie", "The Wizard of Oz" and "My Fair Lady"...I found "My Fair Lady" to be the most fun because I got to sing more in that one. My fave musical to watch is "The Sound of Music" ...but I am also a sucker for "Chicago", "Moulin Rouge", "Grease", "Jesus Christ Superstar"....ok ok....ALL MUSICALS Link to comment

Schot 407 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Ah! Cool pic JonJon! I'd have to say my all time fave is movie of Fiddler on the roof. "If I were a rich man, Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum. All day long I'd biddy biddy bum. If I were a wealthy man!" Oh and a close second is the movie of Little Shop Of Horrors. I never laughed so hard as I did during the scene of Steve Martin laughing to death! Hahaha! XD Hmmm.... Now I feel like watching it. Link to comment

Arilaftia 0 Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 hmmm Would Phantom of the Opera count here? Cause theres lots of singing and a little bit of acting... (The original stage show of course, not what they released recently on dvd) Oh Of course Love Grease, Moulin Rouge and grew up with Jesus Christ Superstar and Fiddler as well So they all have a bit of my heart But truly the best of all.... Rocky Horror Picture Show!! Oh Rocky! Link to comment
