Mary Poppins was the first time I'd ever been to the pictures!

My fair Lady was my favourite but the first one I saw was South Pacific...can't remember if it was on TV or the pictures.

TSK!...double posted

State Fair, can't remember who wasn it, such a long time ago.

Jesus Christ Superstar for me too.I think it was whatsisname.......Robert Powell.(does that sound the right name?)

Half a Sixpence with Tommy Steele.... and Mary Poppins, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

I saw Cats in Nottingham, also Buddy, and loved them both... and Oklahoma at the New Theatre in Cardiff years ago... I think it might have been in 1980. I would love to see Chess, amongst others. We are going to see Les Mis in July, but I don't real;ly fancy it much, strange, isn't it?

I saw Jess Conrad in Joseph at the Kings Theatre, Southsea and later Jason Donovan in the London production.

Musical films and musical stage shows, loved them all, first film I saw and favourite was Carousel. Stage shows Les Mis is my favourite, least favourites have been Phantom and Evita. Not seen Miss Saigon and would like to.

Gwyn, blast from the past, I always got taken to the pantomime at the Kings Southsea.

Gosh I must be old -
my mum liked musicals and the first one she took me to that I remember was There is no Business Like Show Business - with Johnny Ray, Ethel Merman and Marilyn Monroe. The next change at the pics was Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (Jane Powell and Howard Keel) and this was followed by Brigadoon (Gene Kelly) - also Holiday Inn (I'm dreaming of a white Christmas) and Kiss me Kate (another Howard Keel) these were all well before Carousel, Oklahoma, South Pacific, which I also saw.
But I think my favourite would have to be Cabaret (it had a good story line as well) I even enjoyed Camelot to which my OH thinks I'm barmy.
Oh and I enjoyed Funny Girl - geez I could go on and on.
Thoroughly Modern Millie - would have to be the worst one I have seen.

We all liked Les Mis - took our two girls when they were in their late teens.
