I was totally not expecting that. I voted for Hedwig.

I'm going to go out on a limb here: there is someone just voting repeatedly. Just a hunch.

I have never kept it a secret that I love the original Tanz der Vampire. And even though the production on Broadway was a hot mess, Jim Steinman wrote a score that even Michael Riedel has gone on record to praise. So I'm glad there's a few devotees of the score out there.

And then I read dramamama's comment and a lightbulb went off. So now I'm most disappointed.

The only correct answer here is ROCKY.

Hedwig is literally the only show on this list I've yet to hear the music of.

Really Dance of the Vampire? I can't believe this made the list. Wasn't the original in Vienna or somewhere in Germany? (i know Vienna is in austria so don't start teaching me about European geography). I would have to go with Rent.

Yes, Tanz der Vampire opened in Vienna and it is quite brilliant!

I seriously disagree with the classification of most of those shows as 'rock shows'

Why do we have to put everything into categories?
