Our House, the Madness Musical is the best I`ve seen.
It`s the story of a boy with a split-second decision to make, and cuts between the consequences of the 2 ways he could go. Very clever staging as well.

Not really a fan of the film ones, but on stage 100% yes, Grease, Thriller, Wicked, Lion King etc, the big one being Hairspray which I've now seen more times than I think my bank balance cares to note how much has gone to the Shaftesbury, not sure what I'll do when it closes in March!

I love musicals, but especially Phantom of the Opera (not the 2004 movie -- bleh! but the stage show). I have something like 18 recordings of the show and several bootlegs.

I also like the Kopit/Yeston version of the story (the musical just called Phantom).

But other ones I like are Les Miserables, Miss Saigon, Cats, Scarlet Pimpernel, and a little known musical called A New Brain.

I've recently become a fan of the live shows. Jackie and I saw Billy Elliott which was stunning and also the Lion King (second time for me).

I'd go once a month if I could afford it!

Blood Brothers makes me cry every time but gotta hold my hands up to being a BIG Rocky Horror Picture Show fan. It's a great excuse to dress up and be someone else for the night!! Any other 'Rocky' fans out there?
Would have liked to have seen 'Oliver' when Rowen Atkinson was Fagin.
