I am a BIG music fan. I do something with music everyday. I also love watching them and being in them. My personal top 2 are:
1. CATS because it was the first musical I saw on video and live (I saw it live March 12!)
2. All Shook Up because it was the first musical I starred in. (I was the main character Lorraine).
so what's your favorite musical(s) and why?

my favorite is 13, because all the kids in it are super talented and all the songs are really cute and catchy. :D

"Wonderland: Alice's New Adventure"

Great question! I LOVE musicals so much.

1) The Sound of Music - my favourite ever, have always loved everything about it! I have collected lolads of merchandise from the film, West End show etc. Such a wonderful story based on The Trapp Family Singers. My dream role is Maria, or Liesl. Or the Mother Abbess, that would be amazing!
2) Cabaret - again, great and moving story. Stunning music as well. I love the Samantha Barks/Wayne Sleep UK touring version, have seen it twice. I'd greatly recommend it if you can catch it!
3) Oliver! - I just love Oliver! Amazing songs, love the storyline. Desperate to see in the West End.
4) Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat - love it. Brings back great memories too.

5) Cats - I'm really loving Cats at the moment. Great music score etc.

These are only my top 5, I'll have to give a special mention to The King & I, Mary Poppins, Wicked (I've have the soundtrack and have seen many videos of it, I am desperate to see the whole thing though), so many many more!

Phoebe :D
