The Light in the Piazza -- I about died when I heard the first notes of the overture.

There are others, but I just got the CD for LITP this week. I'm in a sort of musical bliss right now.

Rent, Wicked, plus Im surem any others, but I just instantly fell in love with them. Plus lesm is i was randomly drawn to at like age 13 and then saw it as my first broadway show and I was so happy to have such a classic as my first. Now 35 shows after les mis, I am happy theater is so addictive

Les Miserables. We were watching the TAC in a class and from the moment that Colm sang, 'Who am I? 24601!' I was hooked.

I was immediately hooked on DRS. My cousin said that she absolutely had to take me to this show, 'Dirty Rotten Scoundrels'. I was a bit skeptical at first, but she had me watch the broadway.com videos and I had the beat of Great Big Stuff stuck in my head forever. And now...several months later, I've seen DRS 5 times, been backstage twice with Greg Jbara, and one of the webmasters of Norbert Leo Butz's website, lol.
