"Of all time" doesn't really sound right for this. I mean, there are only, what, 5? Hah.
Anyways, mine is probably Beauty and the Beast. I've just always had a soft spot for servants-turned-furniture.
Welcome to the board, by the way. :)

Posted: 7/2/06 at 1:42pmThe Lion King is my favorite Disney musical because of the music and interesting costumes. I heard The Lion King is going on tour again. If it is going on tour, I'll have to see it again.

Posted: 7/2/06 at 7:51pmI've only seen Lion King but I'm seeing Beauty and the Beast in the fall and I'm pretty sure that will be my favorite one since I LOVE the music!

beauty and the beast, although it CAN be campy, i really believe there is something magical about that production...
its a beautiful story, and alen menken is an absolute genius with scores. and the COSTUMES and SET PEICES.
its just beautiful.
but i did love the music from aida very much, too.

Beauty & The Beast...
Aidia comes as a close second.
I'm sorry, I'm just too much of a "classic" musical lover -- Rodgers & Hammerstein etc. and Beauty & The Beast is what reminds me most of that whole era. I am really looking forward to seeing what will happen with Little Mermaid however, and who knows, that could take the cake.
I would love to have seen Hunchback when it was in Berlin.
When Poppins premieres I hope to see it, because Cameron Macintosh seems to have done a good show (at least with song placement and the pictures I've seen of the London Production)
What are all the Disney Broadway Shows?
Beauty & The Beast
King David
Lion King
Aida
Hunchback of Notre Dame (Germany only)
Marrry Poppins (UK Only/coming US Fall 2006)
Tarzan
Am I missing any?

Should we really be counting Aida?
I mean, 4 out of 5 of their Bway musicals are based on Disney movies, so shouldn't that be the standard in rating them?
Maybe I'm just being nitpicky...

Posted: 7/2/06 at 11:35pmNo, I completely agree. Aida is in a league of its own. I think only the stage adaptations of Disney Musical Movies should be counted.
