Musicals, Plays, etc.
 

Hey there. I haven't seen any threads about musicals, stage, drama, and plays. I thought in this thread people can discuss their favorite musical or play, and it can include movies.

Mamma Mia! xD

Just kiddin'.

Favorites listed are RENT and Sweeney Todd. I saw an actual Sweeney Todd musical once. x]

Greaaaaaaase! xD

I will never stop loving it. lol.

I was so disappointed I couldn't list more than 10 musicals. There are so many more I can list that are good.

I don't have money nor my parents permission to go to Chicago alone to see musicals. I'm stuck watching movies.

I've seen a lot of musical movies, but Sweeney Todd is my favorite. I love all of the musicals I've seen.

I saw Mama Mia! in the movie threatre... It was funny. lol But not my top favorite. Peirce Brosnan CANNOT sing...

Grease, Chicago.

Then our Czech: Dracula, Dr. Jekyll&Mr. Hyde, Joanne D'Arc, Gallileo, Golem, Rat-catcher, Three musketeers,...

They all have beautiful music, actors and story .p

No love for The Producers?

Man, I've never laughed so hard until I saw that movie for the first time (and Lord knows I wish I had seen it on stage, that would've been amazing).

*cries* I've seen so many musicals and I forgot to mention so many. Phantom, Chicago, The Color Purple, The Wiz...

Not to mention, we must include plays... I participate in my school's plays, but I'm a sucky singer and it's harder for me to get into the musicals. I prefer acting in plays than musicals. lol That's the power of being on the speech team is that it's easier to get into plays. :D

I love "Wicked"


... But my fav's aren't on the list, and most of you prob never heard of them... they're typically french such as Moliere's "George Dandin"... There are so many adaptations to this, but the best one I've seen is by a tiny theatre not too far away from where I live in Paris...

I might add that The Prince of Tennis Dream Live 3 musical was very good. Anime musicals are always corny and very, very, very fanservicey, but I think PoTDL3 qualifies to be great. You can watch the whole thing on YouTube.

Mine is Cats! I've loved it since I was a kid. I had the video and watched it all the time :D

I really really hate Grease, it does my head in.



Cats :) Love that one.

JOHNNY!!!!! :pompoms:

I adore him....and I love this musical...Sweeney Todd's great!
I know every song by heart! ^^

Whaaaaaaaa?? No High School Musical??!! :eek:


Hahaha I'm just kidding... >.<

My all time favorite one is Grease, couldn't be any other. I got chiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiills, they're multiplyinnn' and I'm luuuuuuuuuuuuuusin' controoooool cuz the powaaaaaaaaaaaaah you're supplying, it's electrifying! ...bambamabmbam... You better shape up! cuz I neeeed a maaaaaaaan and my heart is set on yuuuuuuuuu...


oh man, now you got me started... :o

Oh definitely Rent for me. *nods*
That movie is sooo amazing.<33
It makes me cry everytime! XD

i loved The Phantom of the Opera. its soo sad !!!

Rent.
Love ittttttttttttttt.

I totally adore Les Mis. I got to perform in the school version once. It was great. I fell in love with that music...

You forgot Monty Python:Spamalot!

i love Chcago and Sweeney Todd.....anyone seen Chicago?

The Producers would be my favorite as well (both the old one and the new one). I'm not that big on musicals, but any one that can make me laugh like that one does is worth watching.

You better be kidding! :mtongue: HSM is possibly the only musical I can't stand. Except for Zac Effron is REALLY cute and Corbin Bleu has the coolest name EVER!!

Corbin Bleu blew blue sprinkles off the cupcake!

Blood Brothers.

I've only seen 2 musicals on the list - Grease and Mama mia
I voted for Grease, since mama mia was one of the worst I've ever seen

My favourite musical has to be "South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut". It has more foul words than any other cartoon film ever made, but I love the songs; I listen to them all the time. My favourite song is either "Mountain Town" or "Kyle's Mom's A Bitch".:pinksong:

Me love Phantom of the Opera! its sooo sexeh ;D lol

Hmm. Mostly I hate musicals, but I would go with either West Side Story or Karmen Gei.

I like the movie Across the Universe^^
It was really trippy, but in an awesome way, lol.
Strawberry Fields Forever is the best song!

OH!! >.< hard decision...but I chose Hairspray over Grease :_:
I love them both & the movies.

*sings*
"You're the one that I want!! Ooh ooh ooh honey!!"
:p

ignore this-- double post

Awwwh. It's so depressing to see that NOBODY has voted for Jersey Boys or for A Chorus Line. JB is one of the hottest things going on in my area!

Wasn't A Chorus Line on the list of the top musicals people have seen before Wicked beat it's record or something?

I LOVE The Sound of Music, i used to watch it atleast twice a day in the summer holidays when i was a kid- it drove my mum mad. I don't like the stage version of it though, i think it's because i have become to attached to the actors in the film and how they do things.

Chicago is awesome, and my second fave after sound of music- every song in chicago is amazing and the film and stage show are both great.

I'm also a fan of Rent, as my drama teacher was obsessed with it so we got it forced upon us a lot.

I'm going to see Les Miserables for the first time in London next year, i'm so excited! The clips i have seen so far look incredible.

My favourite musical isn't listed, and that's Disney's The Lion King, followed closely second by Disney's Beauty And The Beast :)

Grease is my favorite, it's such a classic ^_^

Grease and Sweeney Todd!

Although the Lion King and Beauty and the Beast were good too ^^

Hairspray and Grease

Would like to see Sweeney Todd

omg i love chicago, by by birdy, crybaby, sweeny todd,phantom, lion king saw it on stage when i was little holy cow!! it was so much better then the movie jk, umm phantom, sound of music etc..
hey u didnt list hello dolly its so funny and umm that one um... oh the king and i its so sweet Oh i remember muloan rouge (ya cant spell) would u count that as a musical??

I can't stand musicals, but if I ever have to watch one then I would choose Pink Floyd The Wall.

For me it was a close tie between Sweeny Todd and Grease. :P
