it's really hard what exactly to call that "in between" time with shows like Chicago, Sweeney Todd, Pippin, Godspell from 1970 to I guess 1987 when Les Miz came out, which I think is one of first modern ones etc. Because I think they are not Golden Age nor Modern. It's hard to give them an exact genre. They definately brought in a new style during that time from past traditional shows.

Thanx Everyone...So you know my Favorites are as follows:
Golden Age: Camelot/My Fair Lady
modern: Wicked

Having only read the libretto of Wicked I have found that I really have a lot in common with both the lead females which is something I love. It reminds me that no matter how "far out" your world is you will always have something in common with someone. I think it's fantastic.

GOLDEN AGE: GUYS AND DOLLS
MODERN DAY: LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS (even though it was before 1990, but I put it because the Golden Age didn't last until 1990!)
