What is your LEAST favorite musical ever? — Page 8

The fully-staged production of High School Musical really isn't bad. I feared the worst when I saw it and only went because a friend wanted to go, but I liked it better than the made-for-cable movie. I've seen MUCH worse.

Really,Matt?
I actually auditioned for it at North Shore, not because I like the show but because NSMT had a non-eq open call at all.

---

I've never heard someone hate Xanadu. Can you explain why?

---

High School Musical doesn't count. It's just a cute Disney thing for kids, not a real quality musical.

Without a doubt Will Rogers Follies followed closely by Mamma Mia.

The Fantasticks

Thats interesting to hear. I wish I saw it at North Shore...especially since Andrew K-B was in it!!!

---

VERY hard to pick. I have to go with a three-way tie between Phantom of the Opera, Cats, and Wicked.

That's quite a roster of hated hits being compiled! It all goes to show that no matter what one's taste, there's always someone else with the opposite! You know that old cliche, one persons trash is another persons art....or something like that!

Cats
