Inspired by a slightly off topic conversation on another thread, which shows have you seen and which is your favourite? I've seen: Copacabana Les Miserables We Will Rock You Our House (Madness musical) Dirty Dancing Blood Brothers My favourite is Les Miserables.
Do those dodgy ones in the clubs in Amsterdam count? I think the one I saw there was called the big banana boat
Phantom Of The Opera has to be up there with the best. Sarah Brightman and Michael Crawford were awesome.
I have seen Mamma Mia the film but not the musical. I thought Meryl Streep as usual was magnificent in it and it was just a feel good film that uplifted one's spirits. There are not enough musicals around. It's no coincidence that when musicals were popular in the 50's there were no wars because everyone was joyous. That's what I think anyway.
They just made up the Korean War then? Oh yeah, and some wee scuffle called the Vietnam War started in the 1950s too.
