My favorite guilty pleasure is the movie version of MAME. It's my favorite bad film version of a Broadway musical. I love Bea Arthur as Vera. And Audrey Christie and Don Porter are a hoot as the Upsons. Lucy sounds like a fog horn but I still like her. However the movie is pretty much a mess. Angela Lansbury really should have recreated the role she was so flawless in.

Anything by Frank Wildhorn. It's a VERY guilty pleasure, but I love his stuff.

Cats and Phantom. They were the two shows that got me into Broadway, and they will always have a sentimental place in my heart. Shut up, I have better taste now! >.<

I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell plus i proudly share the title of the shortest member over the age of 10 with wickedrentq!

I love the film "Mame" too - we call it the "Lucy's Vaseline Screen Version", LOL! Bea and Jane Connell are great and - by the way, someone once asked Angela why she didn't star in the film and she said "I was never asked". (MY favorite "Mame" is STILL Ann Miller! When she whipped into tapping in "That's how young I feel" the house went ape-****!

You saw Ann Miller, jimmirae? I've always heard she brought a special "spark" to the role. Did you see Celeste Holms?

Flahooley- closer to heaven is a predesecor to Taboo, it has music and lyrics by... The Pet Shop Boys! it's about the club scene, and gay and straight people, and it's like the fetus form of Taboo. oh, it was dreadful (my parents took me cuze they didn't know anything about it... imagine their surprise!) i just recently bought the cd and am reliving it's brilliant campiness. for what it is the music is actually not bad, though sometimes throbbingly annoying!

I LOVE IT!

Yet another for "Footloose"

Also "Fame", "Aida", and (now that I've actually done it--gulp--)

ANNIE (!!!)

I ask in all honesty/What would life be?/Without a song and a dance, what are we?/So I say "Thank you for the music/For giving it to me."
