Top 6 FAVORITE Musicals in Musical Theatre

Hello friends! Today, I'm sharing my top six favorite musicals! My absolute favorites are Sondheim's "Sweeney Todd" and "Into the Woods." The thematic brilliance in these shows is unmatched. Next is "Wicked" by Stephen Schwartz, cleverly interweaving themes from "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." "Les Misérables" is epic and ever-changing musically. "Something Rotten!" is original and hilariously pokes fun at Broadway. "Pippin" offers a story applicable to life. Lastly, "The Book of Mormon" is hysterically funny and everything I live for.
Although I love these shows, I don't typically listen to musicals in my free time-I prefer punk rock and more. What are your favorite musicals?

when les mis came out in theatres, someone i know complained that there was "too much singing".... like what did you expect?

@lesliesanchez460 7 лет назад

jordan pennell omg I know someone who said the same thing! It's a musical so of course there's a lot of singing!

@yohanna7430 5 лет назад

My parents say that all the time I’m like why do you watch it then??

@Emisop 5 лет назад

Well I wasn't expecting non-stop singing. I love musicals, but non-stop singing can be too much sometimes. Especially since it's really hard to understand what they are singing.

@laurenj432 5 лет назад

I get what they mean, I feel like more of the likes in les mis could have been spoken rather then sung

@benjaminsmith1329 6 лет назад

Perhaps Schwartz uses the “over the rainbow” theme and extends it because... it’s unlimited... *mind blown*

@baileybieganek2446 6 лет назад

Alex M Stephen shcwartz said he wove in only the first seven notes throughout the score as kind of an f you to the copy-right people because he had such a hard time with lyrics and lines poking fun at wizard of Oz. Eight notes from a song is illegal, but seven isn't!

@moongiant4117 6 лет назад

Les Misérables is really underrated nowadays!! Ya’ll should check out the Original London Cast (the Original Original), it has more songs than the Broadway version and the newer versions have changed lyrics from this version (On My Own has different lyrics in the beginning) and Gavroche has an ENTIRE song (Little People) and its amazing!!! It’s what my mom played around the house when I was younger so it’s really nostalgic,,

@moongiant4117 6 лет назад

Edit: the Broadway version DOES have more songs my bad

"On my own... Pretending he's inside me~" *SPITS OUT TEA*

@michaylalovitt2796 6 лет назад

Kev, I love how anti-establishment/anti-"the business" you are about Broadway. I have always struggled as a playwright, as an actor, and as a patron of the arts due to the fact that I hate "sell-outs". AKA shows/creators who are just pandering to the masses and giving them what they want vs what story is really in need of telling. It's people like you, and the support you give to weird and obscure musical theater and non-musical theater which helps the little guy like me make a place in this world for ourselves. Much love ❤

@KevinLynchNJ 6 лет назад

I would love to see what you're working on! I feel the moment something turns into an "industry" and has some kind of template or model is when it no longer becomes creatively or artistically centric.. it becomes something else.. disingenuous or a faux sense of reality or some other concocted thing. I call it "The Junk Food" of the music / theatre industry. We see it more and more now especially with the many platforms etc... It's not that it's a problem, but the creativity turns to shit quick

@definitelycatherine7296 7 лет назад

I've wanted to see Wicked since I was seven and I didn't listen to it or learn about the plot or listen to the songs. (Outside of Defying Gravity because you can't escape that one). It's been like ten years now and I still know pretty much nothing about the plot.

@ryerambles7086 7 лет назад

Definitely Catherine Practically it's the story of the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda (Galinda) the Good Witch from when the met in school and we're roomates, all the way until West goes Wicked and Glinda has to stop her but the conflict of being former friends comes in the way. I'd say there's more but that's the base line.

@jacobbuczak3998 7 лет назад

Riley Brown the wicked witch of the west is Elphaba

@ryerambles7086 7 лет назад

Jacob Buczak I know that, I simply call her west

@ryerambles7086 7 лет назад

Jacob Buczak it's a habit from when my highschool did Wizard of Oz

@lynnyfee 7 лет назад

Definitely Catherine Same here. I've been wanting to see that show for so long but it's hard for me because the closest good productions are in London and I live on the continent. So everytime I'm there I end up seing other shows (les mis) lol.

@sw618 6 лет назад

I was in awe this entire video. I never learned how to play any instruments, so seeing you be able to play without music OR without looking at the keys and also taking at the same time was so impressive.

@isabelleassaf589 6 лет назад

You fucking opened my eyes about Sweeney Todd, Into the Woods, and Wicked. I was in a production of Sweeney Todd and was in Into the Woods twice and I never noticed these themes, so now i have to tell all my friends

@spacetrashpile7199 6 лет назад

Yes! I love Les Mis so much! Every price of the score and the lyrics and the harmonies UGH. And Into the Woods and Wixked are so well orchestrated it's insane. And I'm so happy that something Rotten got a mention too!

@bridget-ci5bt 7 лет назад

I know you've talked about how you don't like Hamilton, but I'm curious why because there are so many thematic chords for each character that show up (Angelica's Satisfied chord, Burr's Wait For It chord, the My Shot anthem, etc.) throughout the whole show. I'm sure you've talked about why you don't like it before, but I'm just wondering if you've noticed this in the score? Love your videos, you always make me cry laughing 😂

@bridget-ci5bt 7 лет назад

@MastigosAtLarge 6 лет назад

Overall, I agree re: Wicked. The only major problem I have with Wicked is the dissonance with how some scenes are played for laughs when the content is really serious. For example, after Nessa dies, and Elphaba is mourning. By all accounts, this should be a really dark scene. But every time I've seen a production, Glinda coming turns it into a ~catfight~ for laughs when it should be dark and cathartic for both of them. I'm not talking about the content of the scene, I'm talking about the delivery. I feel like the show and or producers and or producers (not sure whose fault this is) are too scared to slow down and let there be highs and lows.

@TimidTracker 7 лет назад

@Mia-zm9qd 6 лет назад

When I hear Sweeney Todd songs I just wanna sing. When I hear the beginning of any song in Les mis get ECSTATIC. 1. Les Mis or Sweeney Todd 2. Mamma Mia (ik many people don't like it but it was the very first musical I ever saw so it has to be there) 3. Into the Woods 4. Wicked 5. Newsies 6. (I love musicals but I haven't seen that many. I want to but I have no way to)

Into the woods was my introduction to musical theatre. I love it so much!!! I always wanted to play little red Riding Hood cause I was so young when I watched it and all that.
