Not necessarily the funniest, but Groundhog Day comes to mind.

Sister Act had a wonderfully staged chase scene. Come to think of it, that whole show was very well-staged by Zaks. He didn’t get enough credit for that one.

It's hard to beat the hilarious ''On a Sunday by the Sea'' chase sequence from ''High Button Shoes,'' which was re-created in ''Jerome Robbins' Broadway.'' Below is a highlights reel from the Muny's recent revival, and you can see a snippet of it (from 2:31-2:58 ), with bathing beauties, Keystone Kops and a gorilla!

The funniest Chase sequence was when Will did Hard to be The Bard in Something Rotten.

Nothing beats Patti on a motorcycle in Women On The Verge.

I loved the scene where Bette was chasing those dumplings in Harmonia Gardens

I thought this scene was very clever and riotously funny.

I was in stitches during "She's a Nut" in On the 20th Century. Mary Louise Wilson OWNED IT.

Unintentionally hilarious- the car chase scene in "Summer" is not to be missed!

There's also the "Sadie Hawkins Day Ballet" from Li'l Abner.

A Funny Think Happened on the Way to the Forum is one of the most skillfull I've ever scene with opening and closing doors and windows. At least it was in the last revival in 96

One I can remember easily is Rogers and Hammerstein's Cinderella at the start of Act Two

I was just A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum and the chase scene is HILARIOUS! It's about 20 minutes of chasing and it's so funny. One of my favorite parts is Senex flirting with who he thinks is Philia, but its actually Hysterium!

But nothing beat the "14 year old Chase's Ethan Slater's car" scene in Post-Spongebob Stagedoor!
