Born in 1980, so I'd say A Little Night Music, Company, A Chorus Line, and Chicago.

Sweeney I guess, but this is so hard for me. Compared to others on the boards I am so much younger. I could actually say Les Mis and would fit into the category. Umm so before 1988 there are dzens of shows that I adore, but my top favorite would be Sweeney

West Side Story although they were finishing Les Mis when I was born in June 1985 so I guess I can still say that

With the exception of PARADE, most of the shows I consider my favorites were written before I was born: Anything Goes, Company, Gypsy, Evita, Sweeney Todd, March of the Falsettos (In Trousers, too... Falsettoland is the only one that was written after I was born). Sunday in the Park with George came out the year I was born, but it was written before that (one would assume...)

Margo, are you trying to be funny, or are you serious? It's sometimes hard to tell w/ you.

(I was born in the '80s, but before Phantom, my fave, was written)

Jesus Christ Superstar :)

"One day, is that enough for you, one day he went dumb, one day I went blind, one day we'll go deaf, one day we were born, one day we shall die, the same day, the same second, is that enough for you? They give birth astride of a grave, the light gleams an instant, then it's night once more." --Waiting for Godot

I could almost say Phantom of the Opera-it opened only two years after I was born. But if I'm playing by the rules I have to say Jesus Christ Superstar and Sweeney Todd.

my favorite musical of all time happens to fit in this category:

West Side Story

Sweeney Todd is at a close second

There's a lot I am not certain of...

Company! Even though I don't know whether that's just because I adore the soon-to-be revival.

If Percy Blakeney were in Les Mis....

Percy: Sink me! If it isn't Javvurt!
Javert: Zsah-vair, it's pronounced Zsah-vair.
Pecry: But it's spelled J-A-V-E-R-T Javvurt.
Javert: Repeat after me Zsah...Zsah....
Percy: Oh! Zsa-Zsa! Like the Gabor sister! Well I personally have always prefered Eva.
Javert: (Looks for gun)
