Out of all the musicals I've seen since Phantom (Toronto 1997, I was 12; bear in mind, I'm 18 ), I'd have to say the worst ones I've seen were Mamma Mia, Titanic (oh, please kill me. Kill me now), and The Lion King. Just was not impressed with that last one.

CATS. I just don't get why it's so freaking beloved. Ditto PHANTOM. BOY FROM OZ. Everything aside from some strong performances, there was nothing else going for it. Ditto NEVER GONNA DANCE. London TABOO had a great score, but possibly the worst book EVER.

In no particular order:
Broadway shows:
Titanic (a bad idea to begin with)
Annie Get Your Gun (just plain nauseating)
Dance of the Vampires (of course)
Dracula
Footloose
National tours:
Fame (worst musical EVER)
Not to mention some of the non-equity tours that try to pass themselves off as Broadway tours

First I have a question for those folks who didn't like Titanic. What was it that you didn't like about it? Was it the music or was it the overall production? I ask because I own the cast recording which I love a lot but I've never gotten to see the production itself and there have been quite a few people who have been sticking it on their least liked lists. It didn't do badly on Broadway, I think it ran for about 3 years, it crashed when the film came out mind you but I'm sure that was to be expected. I don't think it did too badly critically when it first came out either. Any insight would be good here, thanks. O_o
Anyways, here's my list, in no particualr order:
1. Footloose
2. Steel Pier
3. High Society
4. Carousel
5. Children of Eden

Well, I got the cast recording two years before I saw a production at the Kennedy Center, right after the movie came out. I thought it wasn't bad, but after I started seeing more productions, I just started comparing it and just thought that Titantic wasn't that great. I'm more of a story/song person myself, but I just sat during the production thinking, "I really hope the original version was better." Which I'm assuming it was.

From a production design standpoint, TITANIC never should have come out of dry dock. The sets, such as they were, were these stylized line art things whose purpose and style escaped me. The model used at the end of the first act, when the ship sails off to meet its destiny looked every inch like a bad model. Even worse, we never saw the actual accident: the second act started after the collision.
