I agree. I found "Frankenstein" by pure accident and bought it just to see what the music was like. OMG. It is so good. It has not been performed anywhere, they made the soundtrack to try to get people to back their show, but when it does become a show....it is going to be AMAZING.

Oh crap. How could I forget "Last Five Years?" That is an amazing musical. And thanks about the icon. It took me awhile to find it.

What is your favorite Avenue Q song and why?
My favorite is "I Wish I Could Go Back To College" because everything that they talk about (Except "**** my TA") is exactly what college is like and it is good to think back.
My girlfriend's favorite is "What do you do with a BA in English?" because she is graduated with a BA in English and can't find anything to do with it. She thinks it is hillarious, as do I.

as stated above, Page was in the revival cast of Chicago with Ann Reiking and BeBe Newurth. If you have the cd, she is one of the extras and her picture is in the cd booklet. I think she will be great. Best of luck to her.

Does anyone know if Jason Robert Brown is coming out with a new musical any time soon? I love PARADE and SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD. He is defintely the composer that everyone should keep their eyes on.

Sure. I am a 21 year old male. I am almost finished with College (HALLELUJAH, PRAISE JESUS), hopefully getting married soon to my girlfriend whom I have been dating for over 6 years now, have been an avid musical theatre fan for years, and my dream is to one day grace the broadway stage.
My favorite musicals are in this order:
Phantom of the Opera (the musical that got me interested in
musicals)
RENT
PARADE
JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR
JEKYLL AND H

I don't know about SPAMALOT. I mean, it is based on MONTY PYTHON'S SEARCH FOR THE HOLY GRAIL movie which is hillarious, but the musical will not have what really made the movie so great.....the guys of Monty Python. But,we shall see.

Phantom of the Opera movie

Hey everyone. I am new here, so I have no clue if this has already been discussed or not, but I was wondering if anyone has heard any news about the "Phantom of the Opera" movie that is coming out in December? The only thing I have really heard, was that they showed a 10 minute clip at the Cannes festival and the crowd went wild because it was so good.

I have not seen the broadway version, but saw the London version it's last week. I thought it was AMAZING. Yes, the dialogue was ho hum, but that is the point. It mirrors a bollywood movie, which is corny. The music is spectacular and the dancing...WOW. My favorite part was the "Shakalaka Baby" sequence. BRILLIANT!!!!

Definetly go see it. It is my favorite musical (tied with "Phantom of the Opera") and I saw it on tour earlier this year. It is amazing. My girlfriend, who does not like musicals all that much, loved it....and that is saying a lot.
