I think the last musical movie I saw was “Phantom of the Opera”, and that was only because a friend asked me to go with her as she didn’t want to go alone. I’m not into musicals anymore. Before that, I saw and enjoyed the movie “West Side Story” and “Jesus Christ Superstar.” Have the movie soundtracks for both of those. When I was younger, I was into Rogers & Hammerstein movies. Never really saw a broadway show/musical. Once saw Godspell from a traveling theatrical group. Not a big arts fan.
I have tickets to Phantom in San Diego the end of August. Saw it 3 times with Michael Crawford. Excellent. Only reason Im going to this one is I have friends who want to see it. Theyve supposedly outdone themselves with the set now too.
