Top Ten Musicals!!

Hello again everyone, today is the second of my top ten's and it is my top ten favourite musicals!!
I hope you enjoy!

10. Oliver

Lots of people would probably rank this higher but it is number 10 for me. I thought it was really good and all the songs were great, however I do like the books and so it was quite predictable. Still, I really enjoyed watching it.

9. The Lion King

Again, I really enjoyed this show and I watched it when I was very young and I still remember it. I love Disney so I kneww the story and this made it quite predictable but I thought the costumes were amazing!

8. Joseph and his Technicolour Dreamcoat

When I was 11 I was in this musical and it was great fun. It isn't quite a west end musical however I think it is one that everyone should have seen as it is very entertaining.

7. Mama Mia!

This is a real feel good musical, including all the famous songs from ABBA. I loved the movie and the musical was not a dissapointment. Really enjoyable!

6. The Wizard of Oz

I went to see this with my family and the scenary was amazing. I also really liked the person playing Dorothy and recognised her as Danielle, the winner of the series Over the Rainbow in search for the new Dorothy. I thought that the dog, Toto, was really good and did everything he was supposed to. A great family show!

5. Billy Elliot

I thought this show was a lot better than I thought it wold be. The boy playing Billy Elliot was great and danced amazingly. I think it deserves to be here!

4. Cats

This musical is my mum's all time favourite so I have seen it numerous times. I like the way the cast walk around the audience as it makes you feel a lot more invlolved. Great songs and something new and different to watch.

3. Wicked

I love this musical as it is quite new and the whole storyline is really unique. It takes the story of the wicked witch of the west from the wizard of oz and totally turns it on it's head. A funky, new musical that you are sure to enjoy.

2. The Phantom of the Opera

Andrew Llyod Webber's finest, the Phantom of the Opera is a truly amazing musical and it was a hard decision whether to put it in first or second place on this countdown. I can't fault it, the songs and staging was great and it created an atmosphere where everyone was excited to see what would happen next!

And now... My favourite musical of all time is......

1. Les Miserables

This is, in my opinion, the best musical ever! I love it so much and I also really love the movie. It is a wonderful musical that everyone should watch. It leaves you wanting more and the songs are true works of art!

So there you have it, my top ten favourite musicals. I hope you liked it and if you have any other favourite musicals then just leave them in the comments below!
