Live Musicals

With NBC announcing 'Bye bye Birdie' as it's next live musical, 'Rocky Horror' come and gone, and 'Hairspray' soon to be seen, are you loving this phase of 'live musicals'?

Also, which one's so far have been your favourite, and what would you like to see in the future? [you can even put desired cast ]

Anybody here also love french onion soup?

There is no need to be rude to this poster and his post!

I liked The Wiz and Grease. I would love to see lesser known musicals get a chance to shine in the format...to introduce them to larger audiences. I would really like if HBO got into the game and allowed some more adult musicals to be televised unedited.

OP, just for the record, Rocky Horror was not a live musical.

I think it would be nice for TBS to air a live a Christmas story the musical during their 24 hours of a Christmas story.

It's sort of a game to come to these new posts only to see the OP knocked down in the second or third response. It seems not to be the exception, but the rule...

Carry on.

it was so hard for me not to respond to the "Will The Color Purple close thread..." My snark response would've been, "Yes; yes it will..."

I like them. I enjoyed The Wiz, Grease and the UK Sound of Music.

Maybe in Europe.

Or for HBO.

I wouldn't mind seeing Cabaret, or Chicago, or even Sweet Charity [I think I have Fosse fever]
