Kevin and I are going to "Hello Dolly" tomorrow night with friends. In honor of musicals everywhere, I thought I'd list my all-time favorites.
TOP FIVE
1) Wicked - I've seen this twice now and I'm totally in love with it! It is just plain fun and has catchy, sing-a-long tunes.
2) Phantom of the Opera - This edges out #3 but only by a hair. I like the music better in Phantom. Plus, I've seen it on Broadway which may have added to its rating.
3) Les Miserables - This may have the best story line ever! And it's one of the few things that is better than the book.
4) Mamma Mia! - I've been an ABBA fan since I was 12! Yes, I was one of the people that was dancing in the aisles and, yes, the musical was better than the movie.
5) Aida - loved the music!
