Wondering if this is just me or if anyone one else here has a love/like of musicals?

I'm off to see Rocky Horror ,not next Saturday, but next again and am all excited

Nope.

yes but your deaf so doesn't count

He didn't hear that, Dawn.

I used to love being in them at school but aside from that, not anymore.

I went to see Lord of the Dance when it was on in Preston. I don't know if you'd count that as a musical.

Song and dance routines do my nut in.

I was asked to mime/mouth in my school musical at primary .....wankers thought I couldn't sing.....It was the Sound of Music , sound of prejudged teachers who can't spot talent when they hear it.

Perhaps this childhood slight on my singing ability has turned me into a musical freak? I have tickets for the Lion King too and that doesn't even come here until 2014

Lord of the dance is musical but in a leg sort of way

I could sing high and low notes back then and once got a lead part in HMS Pinafore as Ralph Rackstraw. Had a bandana, 3/4 breeches and a bloody moustach to fit the package

I adored the teacher, Mr Brown...jhado will remember him as dearly as I do I'm guessing.

With a few exceptions I prefer to just listen to the music rather than have to sit through lots of wooden acting as well.

I'm loathe to admit that if there was one of those dreary reality shows to cast Rocky Horror I would be there in an instant.
I'm a bit old to play Brad but I'd kill for the chance to be Riff-Raff.

Q: Why is this thread in the Rockford Case Files section?

I reckon you'd be a good Brad, dammit I love you

And here's the ring to prove that i'm no joker

I couldn't agree more Psketts, Mr Brown was an awesome teacher, the best.

Did he read The Hobbit to you?

No. His soul focus of attention on me was making me bloody sing all the time

He was a special person.

And he always smelled of pipe tobacco. Possibly, probably, the best teacher I ever had

Anyway Skazetto, I'm gonna have to ban you now, for taking this topic to territory.

Sorry, no hard feelings I hope......

P.S. I've been to see the miserables, and the phantom, in london. Do they count as musicals? (Oh yeah, saw Evita too)

No I don't. Don't particularly appreciate them
However my fav it Fiddler On The Roof....I just wish I could have seen it when it was on the London stage before Topol died


The full movie if you haven't seen it


But please don't come back with remarks about jews etc....forget that and just try and appreciate that this happens to all sorts of races of people everywhere to this day.

Topol was good but not as good as Tim Nealy and Carl Anderson
