favorite musical??

[ryorkies]

The Scarlet Pimpernel
Pirates of Penzance
Phantom of the Opera
Wicked
Spamalot

I love each of these for very different reasons, but I guess the most memorable was when I went to see Phantom. My best friend bought the tickets for me as a gift for being her Maid of Honor. Little did I know that I was going to sit directly under the chandelier .... the best seat in the house!

Wicked, Wicked and did I mention Wicked????

And Megan's Beauty & The Beast....it rocked!

I loved Hairspray too.

How cool is that? You're so lucky!

I've heard its amazing when [spoiler (highlight to see what it says)]the chandalier comes down[/spoiler]! I've only seen Phantom once (I took my friend for her birthday) and they had some kind of technical malfunction and it didn't work! I was really dissapointed lol.

It was SO exciting and I had no idea where our seats were, so when we kept getting closer and closer to " the spot" my heart began racing and then I saw the envious looks on everyone around me and I just knew that I was in for the treat of my life. Megan, I cried through the whole production. It was such a thrill to be there and every song was even better than I had ever anticipated.
I'm sorry it didn't work for you.... that just doesnt' seem fair, as it is something everyone looks forward to. Do you think you will ever go to see it again?

That sounds amazing. I love how you got envious looks lol. I have this book and its filled with stories about incidents that have happened in theatres. When Phantom was in its early days, a man went to see it and sat in the seat right underneath it. He wasn't aware what happens at that point in the show, and when it started coming at him he appearantly thought he was really going to be hit - he had a heart attack and I believe he died.

Its OK that it didn't work though, because the show was still incredible and I was still in tears. I'm probably going to see it again at some point in the near future. I really enjoyed it.

Sorry for the threadjack!
