I’m not especially a friend of Dorothy but last week I went to see Wicked. A great production and the two star actresses were fantastic singers. But the songs were just a bit meh 
The Greatest Showman has a couple of fantastic songs, High School Musical too and if The Timewarp isn’t in the top ten I demand a recount.
Which ones do you like? |

I saw the current production of Evita at the Regents Park Open Air Theatre the other week, it was surprisingly excellent as I wasn’t sure I’d rate Evita.
Summertime from Porgy and Bess has got to be one of the best musical tunes. |

I went to see the lesser performed Porgy and Bess a few years ago. I think I read that Summertime is the second most coveted song after My Way.
Believe from The Wiz is one I like. |

Never apologise for Grease 2! Did you see the recent concert staging? The album's on streaming sites now I think.
Cool Rider would be up there for me too - there's too many to choose from though! |

Can't pick a favourite song it's all sung
If they don't make me cry, they make the hairs on the back of my neck/arms stand up
Beautiful |

See I don't know why guys associate musical theatre with 'the gays'
They are a feast for everyones ears and eyes
I don't particularly enjoy the cinema, but live shows, generally, enthrall and captivate me
I become completely engrossed and lose my sense of self |

Mine use to be this is me from greatest showman but where I work its been done to death so lost its appeal to me, I still love suddenly semour from little shop of horrors and masquerade from phantom of the opera. I also heard a production company sing wall in my head from everyone's talking about Jamie and it blew me away. |
