Hey Guys,
I need some help. Can you guys name a BUNCH of musical theatre songs with dance breaks from well known shows, like west side, wonderful town, etc.....
It would be greatly appreciated!
"Be Prepared" from The Lion King has the WORST dance break. I felt embarrassed watching it to be honest. Not that it helps you :)
"Opening: I Hope I Get It" from A Chorus Line has various dance breaks throughout the song.
Forget about the Boy, I'm Falling in Love with Someone, and Speed Test from Thouroughly Modern Millie
Music and the Mirror from ACL, le Jazz Hot from Vicor/Victoria, I Can't Do It Alone from Chicago

I guess "Brand New Day" from The Wiz has a big ole' dance break in it...why is that the only thing I can think of right now?!
I know this might not be from 'a well-known' show, but 'Morning Person' from Shrek instantly came to mind. Probably because it 'force-feeds' the 'dance break' aspect.
'Positive' from Legally Blonde.
