Broadway and Books discussion

What’s your favourite musical soundtrack? Mines Hamilton but I also love Wicked, Dear Evan Hansen, Legally Blonde, Hairspray and Kinky Boots.

Have you listened to “Come from away” yet? It’s the musical I most want to see currently!

i have

Les Miserables, Dear Evan Hansen, Newsies, Hamilton, 1776, In The Heights, and Wicked

Hamilton is definitely my go to!

But some others I really enjoy include most (if not all of) Phantom of the Opera (50th), Les Mis (25th), Newsies, Wicked (OBC), as well as some songs from DEH (OBC), BMC (Off Broadway), Into the Woods, Six (N.A. Broadway), and Heathers (West End)

My favorite is definitely Dear Evan Hansen

But lately i've been listening alot to Mamma mia, American idiot, Jagged little pill and Moulin Rouge. Im pretty new to this Broadway world so I would love recomendations.

I was in New York 2 years ago (Feb 2020) and saw my first broadway show:
Frozen and Chicago.

And when i got home everything closed down and I havent been able to travel outside of my country.

So now im looking forward to traveling again soon so I can see a lot of broadway shows.
Which shows would you recomend seeing??

Ooo, Alberte, I have had the song Cell Block Tango stuck in my head on repeat the past three days. I recommend watching the version on YouTube with Ben Platt, Jeremy Jordan, and Leslie Odom Jr. it's hilarious.

also, I love DEH (Especially Sincerely, Me) Momma Mia (my favorite song is Super Truper), and Moulin Rouge (Aaron Tveit is my favorite actor). gosh, I love this conversation!

I would recommend Newsies, Les Miserables, Hamilton and and In the Heights

dear evan hansen, also love hadestown even though its so sad

It is SO sad! (come home with me (reprise!?))

Also, the soundtrack from Funny Girl is fabulous!

Ah, Idina Menzel fan, I see. Lol

yes,both of those are amazing!

yes,both of those are amazing!

Dude, it is impossible to love Idina Menzel too much, lol

She is pretty much the most beloved Broadway actress of this generation, of course you're no alone!!!

I don't know much about her, but I can't believe the Ariana Grande will be playing Glinda, I'm mean, come in!

*on

Exactly!

heck yeah! I love Lea Michele! I also love how they look so alike that they cast Idina Menzel as Rachel's mom on Glee, Lol

Dude, we should just make a perfect cast, and send it to the producers and demand they recast, lol

Who would play Glinda?

I need to think.

also, Mariah Carey is a great idea!

Darren Criss? I could get on board with that!!

one second, let me make a fan casting topic

oof this is so hard I CAN'T CHOOSE!!!!! Each musical has an extremely talented cast and it's like picking between children (you just can't choose one)

Favorite to sing?
Hands down Heather's

Favorite in terms of brilliant score?
Into the Woods
