I'm trying to compile a comprehensive list of all musicals that were ever on Broadway that are fully sung through.  Please list any that you can think of.  Here, I'll start with the easy ones:

Hamilton 

Les Miserables 

Miss Saigon

interesting list

i never considered Caroline, or Change, because there's numerous spoken lines (although most of it is sung through) whereas I can't recall any dialogue that's not sung in Rent

In response to an earlier reply, I'm fairly certain that Next to Normal is not sung-through. I seem to recall a fair amount of spoken dialogue.

I think totally sung through and very little dialogue, though very similar, are not quite the same.

Kinda funny how I always labeled DREAMGIRLS full sung-thru but just realized there are extensive dialogue scenes though they are underscored by music which is where my assumption blurred things.

And technically EVITA isn't fully sung-thru.  Her entire speech to the crowd outside of the Casa Rosada at the end of "Don't Cry for Me, Argentina" is entirely spoken.
