Broadway Baby

I love musicals.  If my life were a musical, I would be the happiest girl alive. That would only happen if I could carry a decent tune too.  I have been looking at what will be playing while we are in New York in the spring and I am getting so excited!! Every year its one of our gifts from our Grandma to go see a show downtown Minneapolis and go out to dinner and it is one of my most favorite traditions ever.  Getting dressed up going to a fun restaurant downtown and then to a show is the best, I cannot wait to go in New York is unreal.  My favorite musical I have ever seen is probably Billy Elliot the Musical.  It is based on the movie (if you haven't seen it, rent it because it is so good), and the choreography in it is amazing.  I am so amazed at how the little boy that plays Billy can dance so well and perform on a nightly basis.  I would love that life.  Here is a song from the show, probably my favorite song from the show! 

Other than this show I loved Hairspray the Musical (not the movie, that show- its a million times better), or the Lion King was also soooooo good.  Every kid should see the Lion King musical once in their life because it follows the movie so well, and the animals/puppets are amazing!! 

I was in musicals in High School, but I was only in the Chorus because I could dance... Singing is not my specialty  But I loved it and like I said earlier, if I could start earlier I would totally be a Broadway star!! The   TV show SMASH is amazing because it shows (dramatically) the behind the scenes of the business, and I love it.  

So if you have any suggestions, you should totally let me know because I am game it see anything!!
