wearysmith Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 'The Commitments' wins hands down for me. 'The Rocky Horror Show' was also marvellous. Two musicals I'd never tire of watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steved32 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 The only "musical" I've ever enjoyed was 'The Singing Detective." Does that qualify? Ground-breaking and extraordinary, over thirty years after being broadcast. And some superb, evocative songs from the golden era of the mid 20th century.

kaytie Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 If we're talking stage shows there's no contest, it's got to be Bat Out Of Hell The Musical! Seen it seven times starting with the first ever performance at Manchester Opera House. Absolutely awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wearysmith Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 I saw 'Kinky Boots' at a theatre in Times Square about 6 years back, then watched it again with an English cast at The Lyceum. Fantastic set of songs and I was please that the Yanks hadn't turned it into an American location (like they did with the High Fidelity film. Boo!). I'd also agree that the BBC's Singing Detective is one of the best examples of choosing songs to fit a period and a plot. Majestic piece of work and just as watchable today. Big shout-out here for the recent(ish) stage adaptations of Jeff Wayne's War Of The Worlds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
