After seeing a musical today that we weren't so fond of, it made me think of musicals we've seen that we did really enjoy. I always go with my mom and sister, my husband isn't really into that kind of thing. Here are the top 5 musicals I enjoyed and would see again.
We actually saw this one twice, once when I was younger and once again in my early 20s. My sister and I just enjoyed the show that much that we signed up to see it again. I have the soundtrack and at one point I had many of the songs memorized. I can't wait to take my daughter to see this one!
My sister and I went to see this one alone because my mom wasn't really interested in the rock opera. We really enjoyed it. The songs are lively and I love that it tells the story in a modern way.
We saw Jersey Boys a few years ago and it was really good. It's the story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. It's very interesting, but it is for adults only as there is a lot of "authentic Jersey language"... i.e. lots of swearing.
The movie is good, the Broadway musical is good too. Chicago stars a lot of women and a lot of famous women have filled the lead roles. Each womam has her own story of how she ended up behind bars in this dark comedy.
This is another adult only show that focuses on two men trying to purposely produce a FLOP in a scheme to earn money. This one makes us laugh, and we also enjoy the songs.
I love Broadway Musicals and try to see at least one new one a year, but these 5 I would see over anytime I could!
I have seen numbers 2 and 3 and loved both of them. I haven't seen Jesus Christ Superstar in many years but I remember it clearly. Jersey Boys was great. Love it and wouldn't mind seeing it again.
Great choices of plays you have seen. Thanks for sharing!
I think your list is a great one. I want to see Chicago sometime. Thank you for your ideas on these.
Nice list of broadway musicals!
