The Sound of Music isn't supposed to be what happened in real life. That's the point of a musical. It would have been slightly hard to make the real story into a musical. I don't think adapting the story to work for the stage in particular makes it cheesy. Whether the show itself is cheesy or not, that's a different story.

The thing with cheese is that cheese is funny. I htink a lot of the musicals from like the 20s- 60's are cheesy just because thats the style of the time. I think Zanna, Dont! is incredibly cheesy but i still find it hilarious.

It's good to laugh every now and then

I have actually just started getting into happy musicals lol...before I was all about the depressing ones where people die or there is no happy ending like Jekyll and Hyde or Les Miz or Bare. But then Last august I saw Hairspray and I walked out and i was like OMG i just saw a musical with a happy ending...and I LIKED IT!!! Lol. Updated On: 4/27/05 at 09:42 AM

I don't think you can consider a musical cheesy in which almost all the main characters die(Little Shop of Horrors). Just my opinion.

"If there was a Mount Rushmore for Broadway scores, "West Side Story" would be front and center. It snaps, it crackles it pops! It surges with a roar, its energy and sheer life undiminished by the years" - NYPost reviewer Elisabeth Vincentelli

Reefer madness was intentionally cheesy...does that count?

So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life.~Office Space

ashley - yes, it would be really hard to put the original story on stage, but i also think it shouldn't be promoted as the story of the VonTrapps so much when it really isn't. They hate it, they thought the story was going to be more realistic.

"I caiinnn't saaiiyyy no!"
Cheesy? Never!

The Sound of Music is not only cheesy, kitschy but also very untrue. A friend of my mother's used to work at the Trapp Family Lodge. Apparently Maria was a real bitch.

Bye Bye Birdie is cheesy, but that's why it's fun. Same with most of these shows. What about Nunsense?

Most musicals have cheesy aspects. Come on, the whole idea of suddenly breaking into song is cheesy, but I'm with MissElphie, I LOVE CHEESE.

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson
