Favourite Musicals

Anything with Busby Berkeley's demented kaleidoscope choreography in. There's nothing quite like watching technicolor bikini-clad chorus girls cavorting with giant bendy bananas whilst Carmen Miranda sings The Lady With The Tutti Frutti Hat.
 
I like all musicals especially 1930's and 1940's.
Although i think my favourite is not from these eras but the 1960's it is the French "The Young Girls of Rochefort"

Hedwig and the Angry Inch is just wonderful, my favourite musical ever.

The songs are completely amazing, must get the dvd out and watch it again, I haven't seen it in ages! lol
 
Chicago

Absolutley love it. I find it quite underated. Most people i know fuss over Mamma Mia or Greese. But Chicago is truly unique with such a fantastic cast. Renee and Catherine are truly maginificant. That was an oscar truly deserved.
 
Chicago
Evita
Mama Mia
Sound Of Music
Wizard of Oz
In Bed With Madonna (does that count?)
This Is It (stretching the musical thing I know, and I'm not an real MJ fan, however I was totally captivated)
