Let's also remember, Miss Saigon is really of the 80s Big Brit shows - it just opened on Broadway in the 90s.
Not that that would change my choice - RAGTIME.

With Clay Aiken in Spamalot, all of Broadway is singing a collective "There! Right! There!" -Me-

What I find interesting is that neither of our two finalists for Best Musical of the '90's actually won the Best Musical Tony Award.

For that matter, none of the Final Four were Best Musical winners (the other two being Falsettos and Side Show). Only two of the Elite Eight were Tony winners for Best Musical (Kiss of the Spider Woman and Passion).
Heck, one of the Best Musical winners went down in the first round (Fosse).

Posted: 4/7/08 at 6:41pmThis is really hard. They both have their excellent qualities as well as flaws. I would have to go with Ragtime for its more epic scope and feel.
