Posted: 3/6/06 at 5:00pmi think its cool that Ragtime was one of your picks, Gypsy! The "rocky Horror" i talked about in the first psot of this thread's star was Steven Sutcliffe as Dr. Frank-n-Furter. He was in the OBC of "Ragtime"!

Posted: 3/6/06 at 6:58pmI saw Les Miserables when I was 9, and from then on, I was hooked. I remember not fully understanding the story (again, I was 9), but my parents tell me I was on the edge of my seat, mesmorized by the show, the entire time. Les Miz still is my favorite show! :)

"Beauty and the Beast" got me into it. The movie, then the show. It really opened my eyes to the world of musical theatre. I had seen shows before that, but I was never really interested.

What got me hooked? Well, ANNIE of course, like so many other 7 year olds I saw it on Broadway way back when with my Mother and Grandmother, then I was hooked for life.

The closest I can come to pinpointing a moment is the Chicago movie. My love of theater developed pretty gradually.

Posted: 3/6/06 at 8:48pmI liked musicals every since I was little because Les Miz, CATS, and Grease was always playing in our car. Last year, I watched West Side Story and I regained my love for the theatre. This year I saw RENT (movie, I want to see the play though)and now I'm the obsessed Theatre Dork I am today.

Posted: 3/6/06 at 8:53pmWell, if I'm nitpicking, it would be the "Wizard of Oz". I can't give an age, because as far back as I can remember this musical and myself were one. But as actual theatre goes, it would have to be the movie version of "Chicago". It got me really interested in musical theatre, and I got as many Fosse material on my hands as I could. It's the one musical that I know the most about, and one that never gets old. I guess it really hasn't been such a long time, but my now entire life is consructed around theatre. And I love it =)

Posted: 3/6/06 at 9:00pmJesus Christ Superstar in Dayton Ohio with the original Movie Cast... in a basketball auditorium... and there was a fire backstage so guys had to run onto the stage with fire extinguishers... but dang if it wasn't the most powerful thing that had happened to me up to that point in life.

Movin Out. Say what you will, but it got me interested in Broadway productions. I never appreciated dancing until I saw that show live. I'm still a newbie to the Broadway world but it's fascinating.
