what is the most overrated musical of all time

[massofmen]

my vote is for the producers.

[mamaleh]

A tie between ONCE and MEMPHIS. (Dis)honorable mention: THE SOUND OF MUSIC.

[CarlosAlberto]

FOLLIES

followed in rapid succession by:

GYPSY

SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE

A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC

COMPANY

[wicked1492]

^ OR Fuck you, you're wrong.

[Idiot]

What a wicked question.

[PalJoey]

[wonkit]

Once.

[CarlosAlberto]

@ WICKED1492: NO Fuck you, I have a right to my opinion and if you don't like it SUCK IT.

[ljay889]

[madbrian]

Based on the shows' financial success, I'd say Cats, or Mamma Mia.

[CarlosAlberto]

Oh I also forgot:

SWEENEY TODD, PASSION, PACIFIC OVERTURES and ASSASSINS.

[CarlosAlberto]

...did I mention ANYONE CAN WHISTLE?

'cause if I didn't you can go ahead and add that one to the list as well!

[Jungle Red]

As long as Into the Woods isn't in the list...

[hyperbole_and_a_half]

I really don't "get" South Pacific.

[CarlosAlberto]

Oh no, I love INTO THE WOODS!

[CarlosAlberto]

Actually I really don't think any of those shows are overrated, it's just way to easy to get some of those on the board all riled up...they get so emotionally invested. Easy and fun!

[Marianne2]

For me, Wicked. I like it, but too many people act like it's the best show on Earth. I know some have never seen anything else, but I guess for me, I like to find out about other works that might be interesting.

[Mister Matt]

I'd have to go with either The Producers or Spring Awakening.

[South Fl Marc]

"The Lion King"
I loved the first five minutes. After that, it just wouldn't end. It was soooo boring.

Second place to Wicked.It's ok, but not worth the sell out it gets.

[SonofRobbieJ]

'Actually I really don't think any of those shows are overrated'

Thanks for the clarifying statement...because, in the end, claiming shows that are too rarefied and niche to be overrated as overrated just kind of makes you look dumb.

Glad to know you're not dumb!

[egghumor]

NINE

[LYLS3637]

Seriously, no one has said PHANTOM?

[beautywickedlover]

'Spring Awakening'

[Phantom of London]

What is that green mess playing at the Gershwin.

[bwayphreak234]

Lion King and Wicked

[Rainbowhigh23]

Phantom - booooorrrring! Same with the upcoming The Bodyguard.
