re: What is your LEAST favorite musical ever?

You guys need to see some more bad theater!

"Aint Broadway Grand"
"Thou Shalt Not"

and the worst was:
"Frankie" the Frankenstein musical...the last piece George Abbott wrote and directed.

Disqualified for being a showcase concert, but almost equally horrific..."Mandela"... Winnie had braces.

Matty, I do hate Meet Me in St. Louis, but cant include it because I never saw it...I was in it however...and it was dreadful (I wasnt, of course!)

The Hunchback of Notre Dame (in Vegas)..it was so tacky that I literally couldn't stop laughing.

You mean Notre Dame de Paris. Hunchback of Notre Dame could be referring to the Disney show which premiered in Berlin (Der Glöckner von Notre Dame), which wasn't too bad, except for the sets, which were rather dull after about 15 minutes.

"Fosse. I enjoy Fosse musicals but couldn't stand this plotless, homoerotic, boring POS."

If you are talking about the "Take off with us" dance segment with the three couples, I don't why you are fixated on the male couple when there was a also a female couple, and a straight couple. How is that homoerotic. it was pretty tasteful, IMO.

and I don't really see anything else in the show that is overtly homoerotic, unless the sight of the hot dancing men in tight black spandex turned you on, if you are a man.

and in that case, I think thou dost protest too much.

Cats... Seriously just.. pointless.

And High School Musical (which is apparently coming on Broadway after Rent comes off.. Hence, my signature.)
Rent comes off Broadway and High School Musical comes on. Something tells me there's a HUGE mistake....

Alright, I need to add The Lion King and Swinging On A Star (though the latter may be because I was too young to get the kitsch of it all) as I had the same thoughts of them as I did with the three I already posted.

I've seen some bad shows (IN YOUR LIFE, THOU SHALT NOT, MOLLY and others) but always found something terrific about a dreadful show. Maybe I like watching train wrecks. However, TITANIC bored the daylights out of me and I was extremely happy when the ship finally went down.

Broadway: The Pirate Queen
Regional: Columbia Dinner Theater - Columbia Maryland "Thoroughly Modern Milly" (Or maybe it was the fact it was filled with middle school groups on spring break tours, all eating like pigs at the buffet carts set up on stage pre-curtain time. ICK!!!!!!!!! I had to leave to get air.
High School: my kids' school production of "Footloose" oh dear Lord........'everybody cut loose'....

re: What is your LEAST favorite musical ever?

"least favorite = one that you enjoyed the least = worst, does it not?"
---------------------------------------------------------------

Not to get into semantics, but no, they're not the same. For example, my least favorite is My Fair Lady. I can totally understand why others might like it, but I really really really do not. It's not the worst show ever written, I understand that, but of all the shows I am familiar with, it is the one I like the least.



White, a blank page or canvas. His favorite - so many possibilities. F--- you, Ms. Johnson. Word.

FYI - "Homoerotic" refers to the eroticism of homosexual sex. It is not gender-specific. It can refer to male couples or female couples.

While I also disliked Fosse as a show, I don't see how it could ever be described as a "homoerotic". One of the dances contains some homoeroticism, but the show itself is not homoerotic. And if it was, why would that be one of its faults?
