not really on screen, necessarily, but what's your favorite shows?
i've been a costume designer for a few years now and I was lucky enough to design some outfits for some pretty awesome shows.
Anyways, here's my list of favorites:

Sweeney Todd (even BEFORE the movie )
Side Show (about siamese twins in a freak show)
Urinetown (the musical that tops all other musicals by wit)
RENT
Dreamgirls (guilty...)
Les Miserables

I love RENT
I saw the new London version that everybody hates, it was actually pretty good.

Umm, one time my mom roped me into seeing Les Miserables at the Panteges with her...and it wasn't bad.

besides fucking dudes it's probably the gayest thing i've ever done.

Cabaret! It's all about Cabaret

Wicked is fucking good as well.

I'm not into musicals really, but if I had to do a top 5:

1) Singing in the Rain
2) The Sound Of Music
3) Hairspray
4) The Rocky Horror Picture Show (I couldn't watch it again now, but I still kind of like it)
5) .... No can't think of another one.

Singing in The Rain was on TV yesterday, I forgot how much I love that film.
