Those are my favorites as far as emotional attachment.... and hours of listening to the recording.....
However as far as productions go... i keep to the idea that Billy Elliot was probably the best production / show I ever saw..... but it doesn't even make my favorite 25 list. lol.

2. Les Miserables
3. Avenue Q
4. Wicked
5. Company

As you can tell, I'm not overly fond of the old musicals. They just don't resonate with me enough to include on a Top 25 list. I love all things Sondheim, so paring down which of his shows to include was perhaps most difficult of all for me.
