Little Shop of Horrors.

I may be sounding a bit like a broken record by now because I've commented on musicals a few times. My 16YO daughter is big-time into musical theater. She has been doing some form of performing arts since she was around 5. She has been in a local youth community theater company for about the last 5.5 years. This company puts on 2 shows a year and she hasn't missed one since she started. Most recently, she performed in Addams Family (this company only does Broadway shows). A few she has been in include; Alice In Wonderland (her first with them, she landed a speaking role as the March Hare and, in my completely unbiased opinion, stole the show in the Tea Party scene with the Hatter and the Door Mouse), Cats, White Christmas, Music Man, Anything Goes, Little Mermaid (she landed another speaking role here as Sebastian, complete with Jamaican accent. She killed. LOL!), and Shrek was a big one. She's done about a dozen shows. As a volunteer parent, I have had an education in the back end of theater, "volunteering" as a set builder and, mostly, on the lighting team. All of this has given me a real appreciation of musical theater. I can't even watch my kid on-stage without welling up. She is with an exceptional company that produces truly magnificent shows. I say this very sincerely. I have grown to love the kids, many of whom stay, as my daughter has, for many years until they "graduate" from the program. If anyone in the greater Sacramento metro area is interested in checking out a show, it's River City Theatre Company. They operate from Hiram Johnson HS. I can guarantee you will be entertained. Of these shows I've listed, probably Shrek is my favorite from a quality production perspective, but I'll never forget certain moments watching my daughter, such as her tap-dancing in a huge tap number in Act 2 of White Christmas, or every moment on-stage as Sebastian. In Spring, 2019, they are doing Newsies and she hopes to land a lead in that show. Ok, I'm shutting up now. Thanks for reading.

I was inoculated against musicals as a child, I'm afraid.

Phantom of the Opera ??

Just saw Hamilton on Sunday!! It was amazing! I love the soundtrack, I have tickets to see a local production of Hello Dolly on Thursday. I really enjoy musicals.

Singin' in the Rain

One of my favorite shows and one I've had the pleasure of doing

"The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee"

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.

It was always a treasure to see Sound of Music when I was young. And in being a musical human being I have enjoyed every musical I have ever seen, especially Elivis Films. I also enjoyed the voice and acting of Barbra Streisand, except my fair lady. The voice of Audry is playful. I must say I was very impressed with La La Land. The movement the acting the musicality, Ryan Gosling is not a vocalist by any means, but I think that is part of the magic. The Imperfection.

I watch cats with my little grand daughter, and she loves it.

I love acting in musicals. My favorite roles to play were Will Parker in "Oklahoma" and George in "Of Mice and Men". My all time favorite though is The original Jesus Christ Super Star with Ted Neeley... Not the John Legend one... He sucked.

I like my musicals dark and gritty. No Rogers and Hammerstein for me, thanks.

Favorite musical of all time is Miss Saigon. Man Of La Mancha, The Secret Garden, Les Miserables, Sweeny Todd and Little Shop Of Horrors are also favorites.

Evita. I loved it, still do. Pippin was good too. I'm probably dating myself here.

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.

Streets a Rock opera

Chicago is one of my all time favorite movies, musical or otherwise!

Assassins! This is a musical about all the president all assassins in US history. Neil Patrick Harris is the narrator in the recording. It's all just so amazing, so catchy, and so informative.

I'm surprised no one has said "Doctor Horrible's Sing a long blog"

Westside Story, first musical I ever saw and still my all time favorite.

The devil’s carnival

Fiddler on the Roof is way high up on my list. Along with others already mentioned.

Pippin, but the original from the 1970's, not the revival. Other top favorites include Chicago, Hair, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Les Miserables, and A Chorus Line. I'm a huge musical theater fan.

Singin' In The Rain
On The Town
Sound Of Music
Starlight Express (On Stage)
Mary Poppins

and others lol
