"What wold I do" from Falsettoland. For some reason I started thinking about all my friends who had died from AIDS and I started crying, I didn't stop til half an hour after the show was over.

"Some Things Are Meant to Be" and all of "Days of Plenty" into the "Fire Within Me"...and the end of Little Women. I don't know...something about that story gets me.

I've cried during other shows, but never as much as during Little Women.

Mine is exactly the same as South Fl Marc. "What Would I Do?" from FALSETTOS. Also, "My Friend" from THE LIFE kinda got me.

Both times I saw Wicked, during "Defying Gravity" my eyes got a little watery, the same with "For Good" the first time....but the second time I couldn't control myself. It was SJB singing so I wasn't surprised, and when she was pulling that curtain shut she gave Glinda (Katie) the saddest smile and I really lost it there again. My eyes still looked a tiny bit red in the pictures from after the show!

The RENT trailer almost gets me, too.

once during Wicked I cried during "For Good." Such a touching song. And another time during Rent when they're singing the reprise for "I'll Cover You."

I get tears in my eyes ridiculously often during shows so I won't bore you with a list of those times.

I cry during 'I'll Cover You (reprise)' but the most upset I have ever been was recently in Billy Elliot, during the song where Billy reads his letter to his mum, and from then on, I was in floods, and when the miners descend into the ground, I new wave of tears hit me. It was reminding me of my own mum and her father (who was a miner) and I just got incredibly emotional. Many people in the theatre were sobbing, and you could hear people sniffling all around the audience.

For some reason Broadway stuff gets me all teary eyed. I don't know. Fiddler always does me in. And I did laugh til I cried during the "Song That Goes Like This" number in Spamalot, especially when Galahad goes "God Dammit, Jesus Christ!"when they change keys...
