The Letter from Billy Elliot.
I know it hasn't been to Broadway but it is on its way. Saw it in Sydney which is an out of town try out (production)for the version you guys will get.
When the song is reprised in the second act many people in the audience were actuallyweeping, myself included. It wasn't a quiet sniff and a tear it was all out weeping!
Fantastic moment in Theater.

Posted: 4/2/08 at 10:41pmCorner of the Sky always gets me in both good and bad productions of PIPPIN... The Wizard and I by Idina was pretty amazing. Raul E's Being Alive....WOW! and most recently the score of NEXT TO NORMAL was incredibly exciting....Aaron Tveit Alice Riply and Brian Darcy James blew me away in the show. SO MANY Great performances and songs over the years.

Posted: 4/2/08 at 10:56pmWow. I think this is the first thread I started on BWW. Weird to see it bumped after three and a half years.
The opposite of creation isn't war, it's stagnation.

Omigosh, there are quite a few of them... I'll start with ones I didn't see in the thread (which doesn't mean they aren't there, probably means just can't read very well!)
Gus: the Theatre Cat - Cats - ALW
Not While I'm Around - Sweeney Todd - Sondheim
Anatevka - Fiddler on the Roof - Bock & Harnick
Still - Titanic - Yeston
If He Walked Into My Life - Mame - Herman
Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again - POTO - ALW

Some others that are powerful for me:
Stars and the Moon - Songs for a New World - JRB
A Little Fall of Rain - Les Miz - Boublil & Schonberg (sp?)
Somewhere That's Green - Little Shop of Horrors - Menken & Ashman
You Can't Stop the Beat - Hairspray - Shaiman & Wittman

There are plenty more, but I'm gettin' tired!
