If anything it will be the 2nd or 3rd (oh yes there will be a 2nd and 3rd) time I watch it that I will cry. The first time I'm going to be so hopped up on adrenaline and other chemicals that I'm just going to be bouncing in my seat non-stop.
And I'm going to be in LA at the time it premiers, so I am TOTALLY going to go to that and (if I don't get tickets to go INTO the theatre to watch it) I am so going to be one of the fans watching them walk up the red-carpet. yay!

Wow, this is a long list for me.
Phantom: The finale when he says "You alone can make my song take flight, its over now the music of the night!" I also went nuts and couldn't stop crying on Howard McGillins last night.
Wicked: The end of Defying Gravity, and For Good.
Beauty and the Beast: If I can't love her
Rent: Another Day and One song glory.
Dracula: When I saw the last show I went nuts.
I'm sure I've missed some, LOL. :)

While in the theater?
A Little Fall Of Rain...even if I don't buy all those pretty pretty girls playing the unloved cast-off.
On video, I cry like a banshee when Giorgio tells Fosca he loves her.
When I saw Audra in concert and she sang "The Man That Got Away" you'd have thought my mother just died.
I have a thing for unrequited love, no?

When I saw the RENT trailer.
The I'll Cover You - Reprise all the way to the end.
Sitting at home on July 10th .. being a big loser about not being at ABz for Tyler and Daniel's last show. I was listening to every song on Daniel's website, I think Beautiful City kind of threw me into it. And then I Believe. And then watching the RENT trailer. Oh, there came the water works.
I cry at like, everything. It's pretty sad.

Definitely during Miss Saigon. I saw it when Fullerton put it on, and the actor playing Chris was great. When he was getting into the helicopter, he screamed Kim's name. It was just so heart breaking, it just echoed off the walls. I cried and cried. And of course the ending, sitting there, watching what Kim does. Half believing and half not believing. Oh man, so sad.
And maybe Cats, but that's just because I was bored to death...

I cried during Caroline or Change in the "Moon Trio" when Stuart sings
I'll stand here 8 days till the last candle's burned
And the guest and the maid and poor Rose have returned
To wherever they came from
Til Noah has grown
He and I will live here
In this house all alone
And I'll say to him
***especially here***
Noah the moon shone so bright
When she played her bassoon that last Hannukah night
Oh do you remember the way that it shone?
On the house
On the three of us here
All alone...
Oh I bawled and I have loved that character ever since...

Hardest I've ever cried was ICY:R. My mom and sister were like "Are you okay?" and I was just like "Shut up, you're ruining it!"
I'm a crier though, so could never list ever song that has ever made me cry, especially outside of theaters.
Like a firework unexploded
Wanting life but never knowing how

I have to agree with the Wicked fans...I knew the songs back and front by the time I went to the Pantages...So I stated crying out of sorrow during FOR GOOD, but when I saw the you know who come back as the you know who and get you know who from the you know where...I gasped and laughed and cried again...just like watcing STEEL MAGBOLIAS.
Another time..was the Phantom Move at the end when he places the rose on the grave...I LOST IT!!!!

Posted: 7/16/05 at 12:50amWhen I first saw "Miss Saigon" when I was fifteen (seven years ago), I just started sobbing at the end of the first act, when Kim kills Thuy to save her child, and then sings "I'd Give My Life For You." SO powerful. I think that's the only time I've ever really full-out cried at the theater though, although I'll often get choked up and such.

La Cage: 'Song on the Sand' and 'Look Over There'
Flower Drum Song: 'Love Look Away'
Pacific Overtures: 'Someone in a Tree'
Most Happy Fella: 'My Heart is so Full of You'
and just about any finale where the lovers are reunited
'Our whole family shouts. It comes from us livin' so close to the railroad tracks'

I've cried a couple of times...
In CoC during the Epilogue, "I'm the daughter of a maid, in her uniform crisp and clean." and "Down to the Gulf of Mexico. Down to Larry, and Emmie, and Jackie, and Joe. The children of Caroline Thibodoux." Wonderful.
And in Sunday in the Park with George during Sunday (Finale).
And in Pacific Overtures during Someone in a Tree (like Hushpuppy).

Mine's the same as Meagz's--Miss Saigon. Between the fall of Saigon, and then I recovered bit, and err, the ending, not sure what song that was I was just crying soo much and soo loud. I can get emotional in theatre but I never cried as hard as I did for that show.
On an experience, meh, I know how some people will react but...when Idina walked on stage to sing the last part of the show of what was supposed to be her last performance. It was just due to everything, what happened the night before, her not performing, Shoshana's great job in her place, getting to see her take her last moment and then the curtain call speech, it was just an emotional place. This particularly stays with me because I was bawling as soon as she walked on the stage and during the ovation and the screaming I tried to scream and cheer a bit but instead of cheering lots of crying noises just came out so I just clapped and didn't open my mouth again...

The first time I listened to "The Next Ten Minutes" from L5Y, I sobbed so hard. Then after that I was okay until the end which made me lose it again.
Not to mention the RENT trailer which had me bawling and the first chords of Les Miserables sends chills down my back and tears down my cheeks.

I just saw Les Miz in London for the first time, and I was silently sobbing at the end when Valjean dies. I also had tears on my face when John Owen Jones, who is the London Valjean, sang Bring Him Home... Which is the second time this man has brought me to tears! First time was his Phantom at the end of the show.

"I'll Cover You" (Reprise)
Jesse's vocals can just break your heart.
1. Ted Allen: Everyone has an interesting life if you ask the right questions.
2. Great buckets of Spoffnor, they're going to sing!
3. "I love shrubs that are historical." -Johnny and The Sprites
4. "We're not singing it to you, we're singing it for us." -Rosario Dawson, about La Vie Boheme
5. "The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - which you had thought special and particular to you. And now, here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out, and taken yours." -The History Boys
6. "Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it, feel it and pass it on. Not for me, not for you, but for someone, somewhere, one day. Pass it on, boys. That's the game I want you to learn. Pass it on." -The History Boys
