Wicked is so amazing! It's my favorite Broadway show, I'm on a phone with a Wicked phone case and home screen. My dream role is Elphie, and I did a duet with one of my best friends in For Good. I haven't really gone deep into Broadway yet, I was in the mindset that I wouldnt listen to the soundtrack until I saw the show so I didn't listen to many, but then I realized I can't afford that so I've started listening to new musicals. They're all amazing, but Wicked still has a special place in my heart for being probably the most memorable day of my life

I will always be convinced that the composers of Frozen were thinking of Defying Gravity when they wrote Let It Go. They even admitted they had Idina Menzel in mind when they were working on it.
Im through accepting limits, cause someone said theyre so. Some things I cannot change, but till I try I never know!
Its time to see what I can do, to test the limits and break through!
Both are among my favorite songs of all time.

For me Next to Normal is clearly number 1. It was a 6 person cast with low-key sets singing about depression and relatable family issues. Nothing about says successful musical, and yet it won a Pulitzer Prize! I love the music and the content moves me every time. Obviously, it did not have the commercial success that the ones above it had which was weighed into this ranking, but personally, Next to Normal is top 3 all time for me

The 2000s? And you're choosing the best musical out of barely two decades--and, keep in mind we're in our second year of a Plandemic with no theatrical performances? There are 80 more years of the 21st century--and you have NO idea what masterpieces will be produced in those years!

I don't think it's fair to put totally original musicals against shows that are created from already existing music (Jersey Boys, Mama Mia. It's not hard to create a musical when all the music has already been written by someone else.

I agree with a lot of these, but The Color Purple not even getting a spot on the top 10 list? That's insane, especially when you've put the disaster that was the Mamma Mia stage musical above it.

Thoroughly Modern Millie, 6 Tonys out of 11 nominations, launched the biggest star of the decade, arguably one of the greatest of a generation, not even an honorable mention.

A friend and I happened to see Monty Python onstage in NY. It was fabulous! The entire original cast was there, because they were filming it.

I've done pit orchestra for a small theater production of Light in the Piazza. What a gorgeous show. Made me cry every night of the run.

I don't know if I'm more offended that Spring Awakening wasn't number one, or that she pronounced Wendla wrong.

Okay but, Light in the Piazza deserves an actual spot on this list. The story/score are so beautiful.
