Best Musical Ever?

There have been some really good musicals over the years, from Oliver! to High School Musical.

So what is your favourite and why?

Mine is close between Evita and Hairspray.

I think Evita edges it, its just so clever and the soundtrack is more deep and you can listen to it on you iPod without skipping any songs.

Also, Madonna puts in a stellar performance both on the big screen and of course, vocally.
 
Madonna's Evita is brilliant - I have it on my iPod and listen to it from start to finish regularly :) I always picture her as "Evita" dying in her bed towarRAB the end, so sad.

Les Mis
 
cheesey cringey over the top breathless whatever ...no musical comes anywhere near mamma mia !!.. ... it blew me away !!! .... and the fabulous Greek location alone should win an award !!!
 
I love the Nightmare Before Christmas too, surprised they've never made a stage production of it.

Other favourites - Singin' In The Rain & The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
 
Got to be Cabaret for me, but maybe that's more of a film with singing.

For a full-on musical spectacular - West Side Story.
