Someone e-mailed me to ask what musicals I had seen... Are you ready for this...? Get comfy because it's crazy. And this all only started about five years ago... so...
The Producers, Phantom of the Opera, Wicked (x3), Cats, Hairspray, Spam-a-Lot (x2), Stomp, Beauty and the Beast, RENT (x5 and once with the Adam and Anthony- the two original lead cast members!!!), The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee (which is the funniest thing EVER!), Wizard of Oz, The Color Purple. West Side Story, Legally Blonde, Mary Poppins (we sat in the 5th row and she flew right over our heads! AND... when Bert walks up that wall... OMG!!!), Fiddler on the Roof, Drum Line, Blue Man Group, Grease, Chicago, The Aluminum Show, Memphis (going again next month!), The Addams Family, My Fair Lady (and the rain in Spain was so boring!), The Rocky Horror Show, Cirque Holidaze, Rock of Ages (so fun!), and In the Heights.
We have tickets yet for Memphis, Jersey Boys, and Young Frankenstein... after that ends in May, I'm all caught up for now. It's sick, you guys. I just L-O-V-E musical theater. Badly. My hubby is so nice to support my habit!
Anywho, back to the task at hand...
I was going to select two random posts for my Common Core Math Fluency Pet Shop pack... but, Ann left the most charming comment that was just bursting with musical titles... so how can I NOT give one to her? You'll have to check out her comment... it's #23 on yesterday's post.
And the two random winners are...
Thanks for your great comments yesterday! You guys are the best! I'll be working on a similar pack that is aligned to 1st grade CCS soon.
And... hoping to share a freebie tomorrow! :)
Don't forget about the Leap Day free flippy book on my Teacher's Notebook shop and all of my math stuff is 20% for the weekend! Teacher's Notebook featured me as their "Featured Shop" this week! I'm honored!!!!
I love musicals also. I am going to see west side story next week, I can't wait. I read your list a couple times expecting to see Mama Mia. That is one of my very very favorites along with Aida. Aida is an Elton John and Tim Rice collaboration. It is wonderful. Mama Mia will be in Cincinnati in May. I bought tickets for everyone in my family for Christmas.

That's a long list of musicals! You DO have a supportive husband! There are two that I've seen that you didn't list....Mama Mia and Joseph and the amazing dream coat. Did you know that the Sturgis high school will be performing that spelling bee musical this spring? Keep watching the newspaper if you are interested. Have fun scrap booking. Get lots of pages done.

I love musicals, too! I grew up listening to all the old Rogers and Hammerstein's musical soundtracks on vinyl :) Now, my absolute favorite musical I've seen on stage is Les Miserables.

Hello Mrs Sykes
You will LOVE Jersey Boys, one of my all time favourites !! If I forgot to say thank you for the Leap Year flippy book....THANKS :)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, oh my goodness, I got one! Wow! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! Email on it's way. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are my new favorite! I love finding new friends who are obsessed with musicals. I am never current on pop music because all I listen to are Musical Soundtracks. 7 Brides for 7 Brothers, Wicked, and Beauty and the Beast are my favorites...with Little Women and Titanic being close seconds.

Wow, you have seen lots of musicals! I have seen a few, but now you are making me want to find a way to shell out the bucks to go see Les Miserables that is coming here next week! I wanted to anyway, just not sure I'll be able to. We'll see! My faves have definitely been Phantom and Wicked!! AND...I just went to Cirque Holidaze this December, and loved it!
