I have "El Fantasma de la Opera"...the Mexican cast. It's awesome, I almost enjoy it more then the English version.

I also really enjoy Joseph adn the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

P.S. "Phantom" is a compleatly different musical then "The Phantom of the Opera"....but since this was an ALW thread, I knew what you meant.

Having played in pit orchestras for local awards shows, Andrew Lloyd Weber seems to have written about 99% of the music we played.

Cats, Phantom, etc. All good stuff for letting the recipient know we need to cut to commercial

Well of all things can it be really?
No, yes, ho hi, oh my eye.
My mind may be wandering but I confess
I believe it is old Deuteronomy.


My favorite song from Cats.

I prefer Maxwell Sheffield.

I loved Phantom of the Opera. It's the only play I've ever been to.

Am I the only here who saw Whistle Down the Wind? Saw it in London. It was fun.

I find all of Sir Lloyd Webbers musicals to be somewhat alike -- but very entertaining.

Have seen,

Jesus Christ, Superstar
Joseph
Starlight Express
Cats
Aspects of Love
Phantom of the Opera
Evita
Whistle Down the Wind
Miss Saigon (oops, not an ALW Show -- See post later)
Sunset Blvd.

And will probably think of a couple more.

I understand he will have another premiering soon.

Sorry I'm so Musical-Theatre picky (blame it on my voice teacher...)

Miss Saigon is NOT ALW...it's Cameron Makintosh (Boubil & Shoneberg...[sp?]), along with Les Miz...

Evita and Superstar I've only seen on video, but I loved them...

Phantom OTO I got to sit so close the second time I could feel the heat from the pyros...it was awesome!!
