    Bare. Hands down favorite. I'm also partial to Newsies, Spring Awakening, Death Takes A Holiday, Once, A Man of No Importance, and The Last Five Years. Of course I love the classics too, Phantom, Les Mis, West Side Story, Camelot, etc.

    Miss Saigon has the lot!

    I love musicals. Have seen about 25 different ones in London's West End.

    Am currently addicted to Superstar, the TV show in the UK looking for a Jesus for an arena tour of Jesus Christ Superstar!

    I've seen "Mamma Mia" twice in London---SO much fun! (first time with my husband, second time with my mom)

    Also loved the Lion King, Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables, Little Shop of Horrors, and the Woman in White.

    Monty Python's Spamalot was largely entertaining too (one number was truly in bad taste in my opinion but then again it IS Monty Python....)

    Well I think West Side Story is fantastic, the music, the lyrics, the story ... but songs like Maria, Tonight, America, Somewhere ... hard to beat .!!

    As a child in those long car journeys with my parents and their 8 track cartridge if you remember them, we only had 3 cartridges and South Pacific was one of them and again there are some fantastic songs there even if the plot's a bit slushy ...

    As for live theatre, I've only seen 5 Guys Named Mo ... and as I was in the cheap seats right up at the back we got a 6th Mo up there with us laughing at the mugs that paid top dollar down below .! I can't remember the plot (lost it, obviously) or anything but it was a brilliant night out ...
