Judging by the buzz/attention during each musical's opening season, I would say The Producers. However, if you're talking about a vote taken in 2010 with those shows as candidates, the winner would probably be Hairspray.
For revivals, it's less clear cut, but I think that South Pacific would probably have won the theoretical combining-the-opening-seasons as well as a 2010 vote.

My personal opinion: Hair (shout out to Company), and In The Heights
What I think would happen: The Producers or Billy Elliot, and South Pacific.

Posted: 4/6/10 at 11:11pmI think South Pacific would definitely win.
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

Billy Elliot and South Pacific would win the top prizes, but probably Hairspray would win Best Score.
Contact, Millie, Spamalot, Into the Woods, and La Cage would all be at the bottom of the pile.
