Movie: The first one I 'really' remember is "A Chorus Line", I was about 10 or 11.
Live: A regional, German production of "My Fair Lady" when I was 13. It was the dress rehershal with some breaks for stage directions and stuff, still I loved it.
First 'big' production: Starlight Express in Bochum.(In Germany there's nothing like Broadway or West End, a center, but the (Hit-)Muscials are playing in theatres spread all over the country. Actually ever big city has it's "own" musical)
West End: Wicked.

Movie: almost positive it was The Wizard of Oz; I think I've been watching it since forever.
Local: when I was three I saw my next-door neighbor in a production of Bye Bye Birdie at Quakertown High School in Quakertown, PA. We don't live there anymore, but I still remember that production!
Tour: The Wizard of Oz in Baltimore, MD, perhaps the Lyric Operahouse. My mom, my neighbor, his mom, and I were in the balcony.
Broadway: Les Miserables, the January before it closed. What an amazing production to see for my first Broadway show! I just recently started realizing that I was seeing some of the cast from that show in other casts - Joberg and Kevin Kern in The Wedding Singer, and I just gleefully met Aymee Garcia at the Flea Market, who was my Mme. Thenardier.
