"Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around."

Are we voting for which was the better production (meaning the actual Broadway version onstage) or are we voting for which is better simply in book/lyric/music in general? I guess the actual Broadway show, hu? I think Titanic had so much potential that was messed up with some of the design and choreography choices in the Broadway production. So, sadly I must choose Miss Saigon if we are comparing the two Broadway versions side-by-side.

You get to choose the criteria on which you base your preference. Raw materials (book/lyrics/music), Broadway productions, touring productions, OCRs, reviews you've read, the casting of tea leaves, the toss of a coin... it's up to you.

But you can only vote once in a particular game.

Miss Saigon but only because I was in a production of it over the summer...a production currently nominated for four IRNE awards.

I never got what the big deal was about Miss Saigon, but I cried like a small child when I saw Titanic. So my vote's for Titanic.
