I'd have to say for me it's a tie between The Drowsy Chaperone and the Roundabout production of 110 In the Shade

If I absolutely had to choose, I'd say Assassins, but ask me in a week and I might say something different, and I have about half a million coming really close.

I was actually just thinking about this the other day. The answer I came up with was there is no possible way to pick just one as my all time favorite. Here is my best try.

Rent
It was the first musical that I ever even really heard of. Rent was really my first and will alway have a very special place for me.

Evita
Hairspray
Follies
Bare
Sweeney Todd
Company <----- Company actually has my favorite song of all time (Being Alive)
Gypsy
The Last 5 Years
Martin Guerre
Ragtime
Sunset Boulevard
[Title of Show]
Wicked
The Wedding Singer

So there is my top 15 in no order at all

"On Your Toes" is so haunting. I can easily close my eyes and get carried back to 1936, especially during the "Slaughter on Tenth Avenue" ballet.
