To dreamcoat, who claims of "Masculinity" and "Cocktail Counterpoint" in LA CAGE that "both of those numbers are better when staged then listening to them on the cast album, IMO"

I hate to be the grouchy grouch on this thread, but I'm REALLY familiar with the original 1983 staging of those numbers: I worked on the original production, the 1st national tour and the 1st bus and truck, and had to suffer through countless performances of those 2 numbers, each time capped with the tepid applause they would generally receive.

Jerry Herman never really found a good way to musicalize the bigots in that show-- you should have heard his original number for Monsieur Dindon that was cut in Boston that was basically a string of racial epithets set to music. Sheesh!

I never knew about the cut Dindon number.

And honestly- the show is effective without the Dindons having a real musical number (other than "Cocktail Counterpoint"). They don't need a musical voice.

Into the Woods and Carousel are the only two I can think of.

Sunday in the Park with George.

Love all the people saying Les Mis. There were no bad songs in there because there were only five songs.

I have to say SPRING AWAKENING. Though the cast recording is crap, every single song is beautiful, and full of emotion (again, the songs, no the recording).I've seen it live multiple times, and if performed well, I am in tears by the end of Act 1.
