I'm watching my favorite musical of all time

[MonkeyFunk]

guess what it is.

[Broken_Hero]

1. 7 Brides for 7 Brothers? Or Moulin Rouge, nt

[MonkeyFunk]

3. 7 brides is a pretty crappy muscial

and Moulin Rouge is a geat musical.

but this is neither of those.

It has an overture.

[Broken_Hero]

5. Ha, I liked 7 brides, :)

movie always cracked me up...hmm, how about, the obvious Sound of Music?

[MonkeyFunk]

9. I love Sound of Music...

but it's not the best musical.

Here's a hint.. I saw the show on Broadway with the star of the movie.

[VenusRising]

2. Best Little Whorehouse In Texas?

just a guess :shrug:

[MonkeyFunk]

4. unlikely

[WCGreen]

6. Cabaret.....

[MonkeyFunk]

7. that's up there...

among ny faves.... but no.

[Nicole]

8. West Side Story n/t

[MonkeyFunk]

10. ah!

my second-favorite musical. Both movies feature the same actor.

on edit: both movies also feature the same singer.

[Nicole]

11. Gypsy?

Natalie Wood was in both, about a year apart I think?.

[MonkeyFunk]

14. nope!

But you're precisely my cup of tea.

[Nicole]

17. Meet Me in Las Vegas?

George Chakaris(sp?) was in that & West Side Story.

[MonkeyFunk]

18. nope

never even heard of that one.

[Nicole]

19. Three strikes and I'm out.

I give up.

[MonkeyFunk]

24. yeah

sorry. Have a lollipop.

[k_jerome]

12. grease 2? nt.

[MonkeyFunk]

15. you're being silly

Grease 2 is only my fourth favorite.

[Roon]

13. The Music Man

eom

[MonkeyFunk]

16. good guess...

one of my favorites. I was in the play in High School.

But no...

[ForrestGump]

20. "Paint Your Wagon"!

Cool stuff. :D

[MonkeyFunk]

21. no...

that's the worst musical of all time. Who ever thought Lee Marvin could sing?

[hfojvt]

22. Fiddler on the Roof

[MonkeyFunk]

23. ah, a fine play

but no.

Let's recap:

It features stars from both this musical and West Side Story.

Is featurs a singer from both this musical and West Side Story.


I saw the star of this musical in this play on Broadway - and I'm in my 40s.

[MonkeyFunk]

25. another hint....

the first act is great.

The third act is classic.

The second act .. meh.

[Nicole]

28. The King And I?

Rita Moreno was in that & West Side Story.

[MonkeyFunk]

30. You win

Yes, it's the King and I.

Rita Moreno was featured in both King and West Side Story. Marnie Nixon sang the lead roles in both movies. And I saw Yul Brynner on Broadway in his last turn as the King in 1978.

You get the special Monkeyfunk Golden Weasel award.

[trof]

39. From the play "Anna and the King of Siam".

Not sure which I liked best.

[MonkeyFunk]

26. sigh...

where's Terrya? He'd know immediately.

[Skittles]

27. Rocky Horror

yes

[MonkeyFunk]

29. a fave, but no...

There is no singer that was in Rocky Horror and West Side Story. I hope this doesn't result in a ball-kicking or whatever it is you do.

[Kutjara]

31. Little Shop of Horrors?

[MonkeyFunk]

32. oh...

good guess... but yet so not a good guess.

[MonkeyFunk]

33. here's why I love this movie so much...

In the third act, when he asks her about dancing, and he places his hand on her waist and the orchestra swells and they waltz to "Shall We Dance"....

well, there's no greater moment in movie history.

[hippywife]

34. The King and I.

Excellent movie!

[MonkeyFunk]

35. Indeed it is

it's got it all, great music, great actors, great costumes, etcetera etcetera etcetera

[hippywife]

37. LOL

:rofl:

[terrya]

36. And Marni Nixon never sounded better.

I agree, "The King and I" is a great musical. "Getting to Know You" is one of the best moments.

[MiniMandaRuth]

38. Oaklahoma?

[Arugula Latte]

40. Is that the one where guys from Oakland go to the Prairie?

;) Just funnin' ya!

[WCGreen]

41. That's funnny...

I like that...

[Arugula Latte]

42. Thanks.

:hi:

[jobycom]

43. It is a pronoun.

And that's not a guess.
