Gypsy, if you think about it it's very touching!
Avenue Q- I will not give away the sordid details.
Secret's- It brought me closer to a very special person, I learned about producing and how difficult it is to Produce a show.
Dame Edna- I found her show to be one of the funniest one woman shows around. I wish the possum would return to Broadway where she belongs.
Forbidden Broadway- I saw every edition since i was a young woman and it brought me closer to my father.
Wonderful Town- Watching Donna Murphy perform was a very moving experience especially when she sings my favorite song 100 ways to lose a man. A riveting performance.
Dream Girls- Watching Jennifer Holiday sing made me cry. I was so touched it made me a theater junkie from that day on.
Listen To My Heart- The Songs of David Friedman are beautiful, and i listen to his inspiring music every day.

Man of La Mancha - the message is one of the best ever presented. To always look for the good in humanity and see through the bad. To always strive for a better existence and to always want to be a better person, both to yourself and your fellow man - to fight even though you don't have an ounce of strength left in you, because you believe in your dream. That is what changed my life. (and every time I play the role it makes more and more sense to me.)
Thank you Dale Wasserman and Mitch Leigh.
Wicked deeply touched me.
Two shows that touched me
1) Ragtime- that's evident
2) Wicked- I think the emphasis it puts on not only the friendship of the two women as they grow up, but also the theme of overcoming obstacles and being outcast because you are different (and the love story
always,

Ragtime, Les Miz, Into To The Woods, Rent.
I was gonna say the one that touched me is now doing time...
but ok...ok...
In the same weekend, I saw LOVE! VALOUR! COMPASSION! and Dan Butler's THE ONLY THING WORSE YOU COULD HAVE TOLD ME. The both not only touched me, but forced me to change. I came out to my parents the next day.
Glengarry Glen Ross--saw it in Arizona and wanted to be an actor from then on.
Proof--Catherine's dilemma convincing Hal that she had proved her mathematician genius dad's theorem took me back to the time as an undergrad when an engineering professor accused me of plagiarism on a term project during my final semester. I petitioned for departmental review and won. Like Catherine, I went out on a high note.
Aida--I'm a long-time fan of Deborah A. Cox. I finally got to see her turn at 'Aida' during the previews and was really moved by her take on "Easy as Life". It was an emotion-charged performance.
