Posted: 8/13/04 at 4:40pmI cant pick just one. I would say its a tie between West Side Story, Sound of Music, Wizard of Oz and Singin in the Rain.

I have always loved Xanadu. And I also love the camp classic Can't Stop The Music.
But I also adore CHICAGO and MOULIN ROUGE

Sound of Music...above and beyond.
I cant imagine my life without it. I have one of my best friends b/c of it. She heard me talking about it in 7th grade pre-algebra and have been friends ever since! Plus, its the reason I fell in love with musicals and performance.
