We all have our personal faves ... but re-read my post above. :)
And Cats is based on different poems, not just one. I am not a huge fan, but do think that composing an entire creative musical out of a book of poetry is amazing.
Like creating a three hour musical out of a five minute childrens tale (Starlight Express).

It's nice to see someone talking about Howard Ashman. He was a brilliant brilliant man. Not only were his lyrics excellent, his book-writing skills were nothing short of brilliant. Were he still alive we would probably love the work he was doing and more people would recognize what a talent he really was.
However, Beauty and the Beast on Broadway suffers from a distinct lack of Howard Ashman. Most of the things that were added just fall short for me. He would have made it brilliant.
