Dead Gay Son from Heathers. Ugh.

There's already Sunny Afternoon which uses a lot of the songs, but Lola versus Powerman and the Moneygoround would be AMAZING as a musical

1. Yes2. Yes3. JOSH GROBAN

AKB is so wrong for Gabe. I agree with Carolee Carmello for Diana.

I haven't seen Bandstand, but I can say that TPTGW is a really fun night and memorable experience!

Parade and Catch Me if You Can

Too soon for a revival!! That being said, I'd love to see Aaron in the role and have also always pictured Josh Groban as a wonderful Bobby - even before he got into "Broadway."

Spring Awakening is entertaining, but hardly actually addresses any social issues. I would have to go with Memphis, Newsies, or Billy Elliot.

newintown said: "asimplelegal2 asked "How do you find the music to be simple?"Without diving too deeply into an arcane music theory discussion that few would appreciate or understand, I would just say that I find that Molloy's musical language tends towards lingering on one simple major or minor chord for many measures, with predictable, small harmonic progressions (reminiscent of the musical language of beginner guitar players), melodies that tend to rest on or around one note for long stret...

newintown said: "Suddenlyseymour3 wrote: "The admirable ambition of its complex score doesn't make it tuneful."As a musician, I disagree strongly - the Comet score (although some may find it attractive) is far from "complex;" the music is actually extremely simple, and the lyrics are mostly plain prose or very repetitive. "How do you find the music to be simple? I am a musician as well, and while some songs (Pierre and Natasha) are intentionally simple, others like The Opera and Prologue are ...

Loving those shady tweets. Also ironic that Groban, the "big name" superstar has gotten praise from the cast for his professionalism, kindness, etc. and it turns out Oak the unknown is the diva! I guess you never know with these people.And yes, Oak is an unknown, despite Hamilton fans trying to convince themselves otherwise.

Book of Mormon for sure!! So fun and memorable. I think Waitress is way overrated.

Sadly not much of an actor but if I WERE- Lucille in Parade- Girl in Once- Audrey in Little Shop- Laura in The Glass Menagerie- Fantine in Les Miserables- Cathy in The Last Five Years- Emily in Our Townthat being said all of my favorite roles/the ones I find most interesting are male so those would be- Elder Price- Jamie in TL5Y- Leo in Parade- Tom in Glass Menagerie- Edmund in Long Day's Journey- Brick in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof- Dan in Next to Normal- Jack Kelly in Newsies

Catch Me if You Can! Loved the show but the marketing was so cringey and frustrating. Chorus girls in short skirts were exciting in 1930, but not 2013! The show is not half as sexy as they tried to make it seem. Also they didn't showcase Aaron or Norbert at all

After watching the Broadway production of Long Day's Journey Into Night in 2016 and then the LA production on BroadwayHD, I've been thinking about how the actors who play Edmund manage to convincingly cough on stage. Does anyone happen to know how actors learn this technique? Is it as difficult/painful as it seems? Just curious.

leave my boy Ben alone pls

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is my favorite because of it incorporates so many different styles of music and (for the most part) it knows how goofy and light-hearted it is!

Haven't seen Bronx Tale, but I honestly found Waitress to be forgettable and dumb. Also not really age appropriate for a 10 year old.
