Best show you've seen in Seattle EVER

Just wondering what all of you thought the best show you ever saw in Seattle was? Mine are Village's Man of La Mancha a few seasons ago, the pre-Broadway run of Hairspray, and Secret in the Wings at the Rep.

Phantom of the Opera at the Paramount (2 years ago?) was very good I thought...

EDIT: Sweeney Todd just took the prize for fav musical in Seattle

Ooh, you liked the Urinetown tour? I didn't like it at all. Granted, I was in the balcony of a 2,000+ seat house, but i thought it was just not the right way to do that show.

I totally forgot about Light in the Piazza. Spitfire Grill was a great show. Too bad the guys weren't the best singers.

I actually really liked Urinetown, even though I was in nose-bleed hell as well.

I also really liked Flower Drum Song at the 5th, though I think I'm in a minority there.

"Noises Off" as the Rep was amazing.

I didn't really like "Search for Signs" that much this time around. I saw it back in the late '80's, and this time it didn't even come close.

I liked Flower Drum Song as well Day Dreamer so you're not alone there.

I also liked Miss Saigon.

You do have a point. I do prefer some of the original and I like the adaptation too. I find room to like both of them. So I have no problems with either.

Sweeney last November, and since then, it has become my favourite show. In fact, with some help from Sal Mistretta (da king of da barbers) and maybe some from Allen Fitzpatrick, I don't know, I'm going to try and start a letter campaign to get Sweeney as a recurring halloween production at the 5th.

Sweeny Todd. Definately AMAZING.
