I am no musical expert, but I really like The Umbrellas of Cherbourg. I made this list for myself.

>>63298825
I haven't gotten to see it yet, what is the music like?
>>63298815
What do you have? I want the soundtrack to The Wiz movie, but haven't been able to find a high quality version of it.
No love for Jesus Christ superstar?

Any recs? The only musical I ever watched was Chicago. Well, and Dancer In the Dark too.
Oh great have a thread about my speciality subject just before I go to bed why don't you.
Something something Assassins... ok that pretty much covers everything I would've said. Night night.
Assassins
>>63298850
got that and I have around 700 different musicals so odds are that I have what you want
>>63298899
Les Miserables is the movie to make me admit I love musicals.
>>63298900
>>63298920
>Assassins
I was recommended Assassins in the last musical thread we had, it was an Into the Woods thread actually, and I love the soundtrack.
It's too bad it's not currently in production.
>>63298862
>this
>>63298862
One of my favorite shows and one of webber's best
>>63298818
Like you aren't looking forward to the live version on Fox in January
>>63298941
Can you upload it? There's nothing else I want, I unfortunately haven't seen too many musicals.
Into the Woods, American Idiot (live) , Phantom of the Opera, The Lion King (live, twice), The Color Purple, Sweeney Todd, The Wiz, Annie (2014), Les Miserables, and Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark (live). And then Disney movies but they don't really count.
Actually can you upload Sweeney Todd too? The movie version or a stage revival, it doesn't matter to me.

Would you be fine with the Angela Lansbury cast?
Opinions on this?
I wish there was a cast recording of the animated special. The London cast is good, but the adult out of the character voices are jarring and their accents slip a lot.
>>63298862
>>63299022
The fact that he wrote that when he was 22 or whatever is nuts. And that he found those crazy ass singers is a pure miracle.
>>63299032
Her Gigi was spectacular.
>>63298759
How come sjws dont complain and cry for more diversity when there no white people?
We only hear them complaining when there are no black people?
>>63299032
never heard of it
if they sing the songs and dont shit it up im sure itll be fine
GOAT Preminger musical, with an all-black cast.
>>63299117
Then instead of creating a new story they take a classical white story and just do an all black version
>>63299062
Thank you.
>>63299092
That's the original, right? I had that one and liked it, but the quality wasn't too good. And you know how they often change stuff around for the movie adaptations? I figured it'd be better just to get that Johnny Depp soundtrack because that's the production I'm familiar with. If you don't have it I could probably find it somewhere.
>My favourite
>>63299056
Get the Patti Lupone/Michael
Cerveris Sweeney Todd. You'll never hear singing so good for as long as you live.

Fuck ya me negro love me some Wildhorn have you heard Dracula and Count of Monte Cristo?
>>63299194
The writer of this is musical theatre's biggest hack, but this one isn't so bad. In general though he's like the Ed wood of theatre.
>>63299178
I'll try to find it.
>>63299194
I LOVE Facade, but I haven't heard the rest of the soundtrack.
>>63299238
I got you

>500 dollars for Hamilton tickets
>still no camrips
Fucking hell. I'd normally wait for tours because they always come to my city, but I really want to see the original cast before they start leaving.
>>63299222
Have listened to Dracula and enjoyed
Why was the cast entirely black?
>>63299204
>a hip hopera
NOPE
>>63299309
If you like those your gonna enjoy the rest of his work
>>63298941
Do you have Kelli O'Hara in Far From Heaven the musical by any chance? It's pretty rare but really gorgeous.
>>63299328
Because the one from the 70s was entirely black
>>63299353
Your in luck
>>63299380
You are my lucky star
What are some of your favorite obscure musicals?
I love me some evil dead the musical and bloody bloody Andrew jackson
>>63299461
I knew majoring in theatre would be smart

Any chance that we'll be able to listen to the soundtrack of Fun Home?
>>63299469
Andrew Jackson is s great and a ten times better green day musical than the green day musical.
I'm a huge Jason Robert Brown fan. His musicals deserve to be bigger than they are (every single one pretty much flops). Parade is maybe the last great dramatic musical.
But I have so many. Every year I find more obscure treasures.

>>63299303
I saw the tour of American Idiot and loved it, but also sucked because there's no album of the tour cast.
The Broadway cast isn't as good.
>>63299328
Why was the cast for The Wizard of Oz entirely white?
>>63299551
I found him through parade and I haven't really listened to any more by him except for new world
>>63299539
in about 10 minutes
>>63299558
Slightly less than Peter Pan
>>63299303

Not even the last five years movie with ak47? It's a pure musical theatre movie. Try Bridges of Madison County. It's maybe the slowest musical album ever made bc nearly every song is an eleven o'clock number, but it's phenomenal. Kelli is perfect.
Honeymoon n Vegas has great yuks. Old fashioned. Tony Danza can sing!
>>63299739
I started listening to Madison County and i like it so far but right now im just jumping from show to show
>>63299518
Ahhhh thank you thank you. Im on a tablet so I'll have to get it tomorrow. I'm racking my brains for more you might have.
Do you have Floyd Collins by any chance? It's one of my top 5 musicals of all time.
>>63299821
Yup uploading now
>>63299851
Hey can you be on tomorrow night too? I seriously need to make a checklist or something.
>>63299712

That's awesome of you. We need to spread musical theatre to the masses!
What productions have you done?

>>63300117
No problem I like to help people
>>63300136
I've already got it but have you heard Dogfight? Love that show.
>>63300258
I have it but I haven't gotten to it yet
Can't find The Wiz Live soundtrack anywhere, but I did find "Diana Ross Sings Songs From The Wiz".
Speaking of which, how do you feel about the film adaptation?
>>63300278
Fwiw It's by the guys who did Smash, which I haven't seen yet
>>63300312
>However, you'll have to wait for the rest of the soundtrack, as it will be released for both download and streaming on Dec. 11.
God damn it.
Why the hell did they say "SOUNDTRACK AVAILABLE NOW" at the end of the show then?
Available and available for pre-order are very different.
>>63300399
They wanted to tease you
What are some musicals that you wish they would make?
I would love to see more shakespearen musicals specifically Hamlet Macbeth and Othello and an adaptation of the illiad
>>63300575
fuck them
>>63300635
Just see Something Rotten.
>>63300635
>specifically Hamlet
>>63300668
Honestly they lion king is really different from hamlet
>>63299770
Oh there are decent camrips around if you wanna see the whole thing. Make a thread tomorrow or this weekend and I'll hook you up.
>>63300756
sure i'd like that
>mfw it turned out the two guys at my school that liked musicals were fucking and sucking each other
>>63299104
I had no clue this existed until now.
Pic related, another Preminger musical. It doesn't have very many songs, but it was amusing to see/hear Walter Brennan singing in a musical.
>>63300855
sounds hot tbqh
>>63300888
Kristen Chenowith was in the early 2000s revival so that cast recording is probably out there. They wrote a new song for her called New Philosophy which is constantly stuck in my head.
>>63300979
>New Philosophy
Fuck I sang that at my school talent show.

This is how I fell in love with a song as a kid, no lie
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyckP1Sjjoc
>>63301860
I don't even remember "Kids".
Every song in the movie was forgettable except for the title track that wasn't even part of the original play.
