SHE LOVES ME of course.
I've never seen it but the OBC of ON A CLEAR DAY fills me with such a contentment.

The two newer musicals I've seen that made me feel happy/ at peace were Come From Away and most recently Old Globe's October Sky.

Jerry Herman musicals make me happy, but I know there's more to life than happiness...

One more shout-out to a classic that had me grinning nearly the whole night long: the recent revival of ON THE TOWN.

Add me to the list of people who have said Once. I love everything about that show, and it definitely puts me in my happy place.

The Music Man comes to mind first. Two lonely people, who don't even know how lonely they are, get together through his kindness to her little brother, to the sounds of "My White Knight," "Lida Rose" and "Til' There Was You," which even the early Beatles covered.
Of course if I look ahead to the course of their marriage, I wonder how it's going to work out. Marian is a lover of the arts, and Harold can't come up with one of the most popular Shakespeare quotes.

Wicked and some of the songs in Spring Awakening make me happy in a cathartic kind of way. I'm a teen so I listen to it sometimes when I feel angsty lol.

The production must be very good. For example, I was anything but happy when I saw Christine Baranski in Mama. But Angela Lansbury or Ann Miller or Ginger Rogers...
Hello Dolly
Mame
Kinky Boots
Hairspray
Chicago
She Loves Me
Half a Sixpence
Peter Pan
A Funny Thing Happens

Very surprised that no one else has mentioned The Fantasticks. To me, that's the ultimate "warm fuzzies" musical. Also, In The Heights and Annie.

JBroadway beat me to it on In the Heights!!!! So many songs in that show just put me in a positive and energetic mood. They really had a winner with that one! Such great music and original cast. Especially the ending of the finale, Carnival del Barrio, When You're Home, and pretty much everything else except the three sad ones (which are still excellent, just not neccessarily fun)

Oh, without a doubt Daddy Long Legs. This show just washes over you like a warm summer rain. It's so calming, yet at the same time inspiring and beautiful and always brings a huge smile to my face

Ok....I'm going to get a bit fuzzy here: the very act of sitting in a theater makes me feel at peace. The promise, the possibilities, the "blank canvass".
