People will respond to your post! Just give them time.
My first Broadway show was Beauty and the Beast, and I saw a bunch of shows after that, but they really didn't make me fall in love with Broadway. I think the first show that really did it for me was Hairspray. It was just really amazing.

I'd saw I fell in love with FIDDLER in 7th grade when I played Mordcha for the first time. And then fell for like WICKED, ASU and all them just recently thru the discovery of shows outside of school.

I'm showing my age here, but I was 8 years old when my parents took me to see the first national tour of "1776." Not that it's great for kids (but it's not a bad show for them either). They both had a friend who was in it, so we went to see him perform. They were worried I might be bored, but I was mesmerized through the whole thing. I loved the music, the costumes, the big unit set, the story, and everything about it. I remember my mother crying through "Mama, Look Sharp." Looking at her, I understood how powerful live theatre could be. I got completely scared when Edward Rutledge sang "Molasses to Rum" and the set turned an eerie blood-red from the lights that were seeping through the windows. Very disturbing and sinister. That memory stayed with me until I was in college. Our University did "1776," and I was lucky enough to play Rutledge in that production. It meant so much to be in the show that "started it all" for me!

I saw my first show at six; I loved the experience, and went to the theatre a lot as a kid.
I fell in love with a show for the first time at thirteen, though; Aida.

First shows I saw were Joseph...Dreamcoat, Annie, and Music Man. I was around 5 or 6. Loved singing along to them. Went to tons of shows throughout the years, but the show that got me addicted to Broadway? Rent, way back in 95 when I was 16.

I saw Beauty and the Beast on Broadway when I was 12 years old. I got the cast recording and fell in love with it. Then the OBCRs grew and grew. Now I love tons more!
If Percy Blakeney were in Les Mis....
Percy: Sink me! If it isn't Javvurt!
Javert: Zsah-vair, it's pronounced Zsah-vair.
Pecry: But it's spelled J-A-V-E-R-T Javvurt.
Javert: Repeat after me Zsah...Zsah....
Percy: Oh! Zsa-Zsa! Like the Gabor sister! Well I personally have always prefered Eva.
Javert: (Looks for gun)

It was the night before my birthday and my mom and I were deciding which show to see in NYC for it (which never happened). Then I saw the 42nd Street tour in January the following year and was hooked.

I didn't see it on Broadway, but the first musical I fell in love with was "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown" when I was about 6 years old.

7 years old - ALW's POTO.
I only had the recording, I didn't see it live until I was in middle school but I became obsessed with the show acting it out with friends and choreographing dances for the music.
Jeez...my geekiness started showing at a pretty young age.

Hmmmm, the first time I fell in love with musical that was still on Broadway was probably RENT when I was like 11. But I was into musicals way before then. Just none that were on Broadway at that time I guess.

Wow. Let's see if I can think back...
Even though it's one of my least favorite musicals, I'd have to say that it started with Annie when I was around seven. But my real passion for it came from the Les Miserables concert tape. I was ten.
I <3 musical theatre!
